School age children grow and flourish in child care programs that accommodate and contribute to their own unique
emotional, social, creative and physical growth. Our program offers activities and experiences that foster a positive selfconcept and a sense of independence by making the children part of the daily planning process.
Throughout the program, adults guide social interaction, conflict resolution, and involvement in activities rather than
direct or instruct. They help school age children by providing new experiences, offering suggestions, and providing
encouragement and recognition of effort as well as recognition of accomplishment.
