What Makes Our Private Kindergarten Different?

When searching for a “kindergarten school near me,” you want programs that help your young students develop skills they will use throughout their lives, both inside and outside the classroom. Our specialized kindergarten care helps children learn the basics of the core curriculum and improve their reading, writing, and overall socialization skills as they begin to interact with more of their peers and adults outside their immediate family.

Our focus on providing the most effective educational stimulation for our students helps keep them engaged with the lessons and feel like active participants in the learning process. We help build their educational foundation for their ascent up the academic ladder. Below is a bit more of what makes us unique.

We Follow the Reggio Emilia Method

We follow the Reggio Emilia approach, which values children as capable and curious learners. Every child brings a unique perspective to the table, and our teachers act as collaborators rather than instructors. They observe, ask questions, and guide exploration so children can build their own independent connections.

This method helps young minds grow through experiential thinking. Instead of memorizing facts, children discover meaning through hands-on experiences. When students explore the world in this way, language development, problem-solving, and critical thinking come naturally. The learning process becomes something to enjoy, not something to endure.

We Have Advanced Technology & Safety Practices

Children learn best when they feel safe, and parents feel most comfortable when they know their child is in good hands. That’s why we take our safety protocols seriously. Our campus features secure entry systems, camera-monitored spaces, and electronic check-ins for added peace of mind.

In addition to our safety features, we use interactive technology to keep children engaged in age-appropriate ways. Tools like touch-screen learning tables and child-friendly tablets allow kids to explore new concepts in language, mathematics, and reading comprehension. Technology supplements what they’re learning in class, so the lessons stick and feel fun.

We Provide Healthy & Nutritious Meals

Little learners need fuel to stay focused throughout the day. That’s why we provide healthy meals and snacks that support both physical and cognitive development. Every menu is thoughtfully created to promote balanced nutrition without sacrificing taste.

We incorporate fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and protein into meals children enjoy. Our goal is to make mealtimes something they look forward to while helping them develop healthy habits. We also accommodate allergies and dietary restrictions with care and attention, because no one should feel left out at the table.

We Have a Team of Skilled & Compassionate Teachers

Children grow best in classrooms where they feel supported, understood, and encouraged. That’s the kind of environment our teachers create every day. With backgrounds in early childhood development and a thoughtful approach to each child’s personality, they bring both knowledge and kindness to their work.

Instead of following a one-size-fits-all approach, our educators focus on building real connections. They guide children through new experiences with patience, help them navigate social interactions, and create space for curiosity to thrive. This consistent, compassionate support helps students develop a strong sense of independence and self-worth.

Activities & Programs for Kindergarten Students

Our kindergarten programs offer a rich tapestry of learning experiences, carefully woven together to promote holistic development. We provide a balanced curriculum that stimulates cognitive development while nurturing physical, social, and emotional well-being.

Our expertly trained kindergarten care helps our students meet their developmental and educational milestones and get themselves ready for the next steps in their journey.

Art

Art is a vibrant and integral part of our kindergarten classrooms at Right Steps®, providing a powerful medium for self-expression and discovery. Children explore a wide array of materials and techniques, allowing their creativity to blossom as they paint, sculpt, draw, and construct. These activities also help them develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and an appreciation for aesthetics.

Fitness

Right Steps® provides numerous opportunities for children to move their bodies, develop gross motor skills, and learn the joy of active play. Our fitness activities are diverse, ranging from structured games to free play outdoors, accommodating different energy levels and interests. These experiences are fundamental for building strong bodies and also support cognitive functions, as well as social skills and cooperation.

Phonemic Awareness

Developing strong phonemic awareness is a primary focus in our kindergarten literacy program, Right Steps®, as it forms the bedrock of proficient reading and spelling. We engage children in playful, interactive activities that help them hear, identify, and manipulate the individual sounds, or phonemes, in spoken words. This foundational skill is paramount for cracking the code of language and building confidence in early literacy. Our approach makes learning about sounds enjoyable, paving the way for enhanced reading comprehension.

The Benefits of a Quality Kindergarten Program to a Child’s Future

At Right Steps®, we understand the significant impact that private kindergarten schools can have on a child’s academic and personal development. As a leading private independent school, our kindergarten curriculum is meticulously designed to foster a love of learning and lay a solid foundation for future academic success.

• Strong Academic Foundation: Our private kindergarten program focuses on key areas such as literacy, numeracy, science, and the arts, ensuring students learn the fundamental skills necessary for success in elementary and middle school.
• Personalized Attention: Being a private school allows us to maintain smaller class sizes, which means more individual attention for each student. Our dedicated teachers can tailor their approaches to meet the unique needs and learning styles of each child.
• Social and Emotional Development: We prioritize the social and emotional development of our students, teaching them to communicate effectively, work in teams, and develop the resilience they need to thrive in school and beyond.
