We Focus on STEAM

Meet one of our preschoolers—Caiden!  Like you, we believe he can be anything he wants to be, including a scientist, engineer, accountant, or software developer. These are some STEM careers of the future—offering more opportunities, job security, and higher pay. 

That’s one reason why we focus on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) education in our classrooms. Active, hands-on exploration of these concepts provides the foundation for growing curious learners and problem solvers—and for creating transferable skills.

Our New STEAM Learning Lab is on the Way

The excitement is building for the opening of a new STEAM learning lab on the second floor of our building. Not only do we have a fun new logo, but our halls are filling up with boxes of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) learning lab materials! Our children are trying on new little lab coats! The computer-aided designs are coming to life! New flooring is being installed! Learn more about the plans
