Programs

Many educators ask the question “Is your child ready for school?” Here at Learning Pathways, we ask if our institution is ready for your child.

Through daily observations and interactions, our Kindergarten teachers commit to the individual potential of each child. We begin with our students’ current skills in all core subject areas and build new knowledge with meaning and purpose for each child.

Included in Our
Curriculum

  • Math, with a focus on bridging the concrete to the abstract in relation to number concepts.
  • Literacy, which includes phonics, vocabulary, reading, spelling and printing.
  • Science, with a focus on Life Science, Earth & Space and Physical Science.
  • Social Studies and Geography, with a focus on our community and the world around us.
  • Art/Music/Fine Arts
  • Physical Education
  • Citizenship/Moral Principles
At the end of each day, we have a "Homework Club" for those children that may need an extra bit of one-on-one.
