ELA VALUES
Explore each crest to discover the heart behind every class.
GROW RELATIONALLY. Our Infant classroom is intentionally designed to nurture each child's earliest stages of growth & development. The tree featured on the crest represents our commitment to helping even our youngest learners to grow relationally- with God, with their teachers, and with their peers. In this foundational season of life, we focus on fostering secure attachments through consistent, loving care. Infants begin recognizing familiar faces & voices, building trust & emotional security within a safe environment. We also support age-appropriate developmental milestones, including early motor skills and sensory exploration. Infants are gently introduced to the world around them, laying the groundwork for lifelong learning & healthy relationships.
GROW PHYSICALLY. Our one-year-old classroom is thoughtfully designed to support this stage of rapid growth & discovery. The waves on our crest symbolize movement & momentum- representing our commitment to helping children grow physically as they become more confident, capable, & curious learners. At this age, children are developing strength, coordination, & independence. Through intentional classroom activities such as coloring, sensory play, music & movement, and hands-on exploration, we encourage fine & motor development in engaging & age-appropriate ways. We also nurture growth in faith as part of their daily experience. Children are introduced to simple prayers & monthly Bible verses, planting early seeds of truth in their hearts. Through consistent routines and loving guidance, our one-year-olds grow physically, spiritually, & socially in a joyful & supportive environment.
GROW SPIRITUALLY. Our two-year-old classroom is a season of growth, confidence, & discovery. The lion on our crest symbolizes courage & strength, representing our commitment to helping children spiritually grow as they begin developing independence & deeper understanding of the world around them. In this classroom, we intentionally nurture spiritual growth by teaching children to lean on God through daily prayer, simple Bible truths, & consistent reminders of His love & care. As they learn to trust trusted adults & building meaningful friendships with peers. They also begin to understand kindness, sharing, & empathy within a Christ-centered environment. Academically, our two-year-olds are introduced to foundational concepts that prepare them for continued learning. Through hands-on activities, they explore the ABCs, colors, & early number awareness. These classroom experiences are thoughtfully designed to support language development, cognitive growth, & social-emotional skills- all while fostering a joyful love of learning rooted in faith.
GROW ACADEMICALLY. Our three-year-old classroom is a pivotal year of discovery & readiness. The book on our crest symbolizes growing academically, focused on building a strong educational foundation rooted in both faith & learning. Spiritually, students deepen their biblical knowledge through engaging in Bible stories, memory verses, prayer, & meaningful classroom conversations. As their understanding grows, they begin to recognize how God's truth applies to their daily live-in tangible ways. Academically, this is often a child's first introduction to more structured learning experiences. Students begin practicing skills such as recognizing & spelling their names, counting independently, identifying letters & sounds, & strengthening early literacy & math awareness. These foundational concepts are presented in joyful, hands-on ways that encourage confidence & curiosity. We also prioritize developmentally appropriate sensory exploration & motor skill practice to support whole-child growth. Through guided play, art experiences, & movement activities, children strengthen both fine & gross motor skills while building focus, independence, & a love for learning.
ENTIRE CREST. Our four-year-old classroom represents the culmination of the growth symbolized throughout our crest- relational, spiritual, & academic development working together to prepare each child for Kindergarten & beyond. At this stage, we intentionally nurture relational growth by strengthening peer friendships, encouraging teamwork, & developing respectful communication with teachers & classmates. Students learn responsibility, empathy, problem-solving, & confidence as they engage in collaborative learning & structured routines. Spiritually, we continue to grow their understanding of God's Word. Through Bible lessons, prayer, worship, & Scripture memory, students are encouraged to apply them in their daily interactions. We emphasize character development, kindness, integrity, & learning to trust & lean on God in both joyful & challenging moments. Academically, this year is designed to build strong readiness skills. Students expand upon foundational concepts introduced in earlier classrooms by strengthening early literacy, phonemic awareness, handwriting, letter-sound correspondence, number recognition, & introductory math concepts. Instruction is intentional, engaging, & aligned to prepare students for a confident transition into Kindergarten. We also focus on physical readiness through continued fine & motor development, classroom structure, & increasing independence. Through hands-on learning, structured centers, & purposeful play, students develop stamina, focus, & self-help skills needed for success in a Kindergarten setting. Our four-year-old classroom reflects the heart of our program- cultivating children who are growing relationally, spiritually, & academically, equipped & confident for the next step in their educational journey.
