Learning Together Makes Everyone Stronger!
We are seeking Learning Buddies to join our early childhood learning community!
In our Early Childhood classrooms, we aim to have all students learn side by side—whether they need extra help or are developing right on track. If your child, without special needs, joins our classrooms, they will make friends, play, and discover new things with classmates who might learn a little differently. This amazing experience helps all children become kinder, better communicators, and natural helpers.
Does your 3- to 5-year-old seem to be hitting their milestones on schedule? They could be a perfect fit for our program! We call these spots “Learning Buddy" placements, and they're a wonderful way for your child to grow while helping their new friends shine too.
Ready to give your child this special opportunity to learn and lead? Apply today!
