Preschool Program

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS

A professionally trained teaching staff provides a well-rounded developmental program. Quail Valley’s educational programs provide a setting for learning in keeping each child’s age and developmental stage, maturity, size, needs, and capabilities. This allows for a wide span of developmental levels, which exists in any group.

To provide such a setting, the approach to teaching is informal and yet individual. This includes a wide range of materials arranged into interest centers providing each child a variety of experiences and opportunities for freedom of choice. Each child is encouraged to discover and develop individual skills and interests while participating in the Quail Valley program.
