Parents As Partners
The strength of our school lies in the relationships that we build; and further, in the sense of community that we create, both within our school environment and without. Parents play an integral role in every aspect of our school community. Parents are viewed as equal partners, working in tandem with teachers towards a common goal. We have many opportunities for parent participation!

Frequently asked questions?
What are the ages?
Tinkertime is for ages 3 years old to 5 years old.
Does my child need to be potty trained?
No; children do not need to be potty trained. We strongly believe that all children meet milestones at their own pace.
Do we follow a curriculum?
Yes, we balance both an emergent curriculum and guided play-based curriculum.
How does an emergent curriculum work?
We document the children’s play. Based on our findings, we learn what interests the children, which in turn drives our instruction.

Reggio Emilia is a small city in Italy. As a small city, they highly value working together as a community. Teachers and children are viewed as co-learners. Reggio philosophy has inspired and encouraged collaborative learning styles.
