Mission

TEACHERS ARE INVOLVED TOGETHER IN THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPMENT--A MUTUAL RESPECT AS RESEARCHERS IN EDUCATION AND FACILITATORS FOR EACH OTHER. IF CHILDREN GET THE MESSAGE EARLY ON THAT LEARNING IS AN EXCITING JOURNEY THAT NEVER ENDS AND THAT WE DO IT TOGETHER, NOT IN A VACUUM, THEY WILL EMBRACE THE PROCESS FOREVER. WE PROMOTE THE APPROACH OF "LEARNING BY DOING" WITH AGE SIMILAR COMPANIONS AND ADULT GUIDANCE.WE USE MULTI-PROCEDURES ("EXTENDED LEARNING") AND COMBINED CURRICULA TO DEVELOP PROJECT EFFECTIVENESS. THIS IS TO SAY THAT CHILDREN LEARN TO RESPECT THE TIME IT TAKES TO CREATE SOMETHING OF WORTH AND THAT ATTENTION SPANS AND INVOLVEMENT IN THE PROCESS ARE ENHANCED THROUGH SATISFYING INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCES.WE NURTURE SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND BELIEVE IT TO BE A PRIMARY FOCUS OF THE PRE-SCHOOL AGENDA.AS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, WE CONTINUE TO REFINE OUR PURPOSE AS TEACHERS OF CHILDREN AND LEADERS IN THE FIELD OF ART-BASED EDUCATION.
