    School Age

    Guiding children to experience their world and pursue their interests

    Our school-age program recognizes the growing physical, intellectual, and social competence of older children. Eager to explore the social world and discover how the adult world works, school-age children thrive on challenges, friendships, clubs, and responsibility. They want to make things, build things, act out new dramatic possibilities, explore computers and books, construct imaginary worlds and most important, not be treated like "little kids." Read More

What Parents are Saying

Our greatest advocates are also our closest friends.

"From the moment we drop off our child to the moment we pick her up we are comforted by the care, education and love you provide to her on a daily basis. With each day she is brighter, happier and a more well-rounded child."

World at their Fingertips

"When I go into one of our centers, I can immediately tell that learning is happening. You see children in small groups engaged in activities that have been thoughtfully prepared."

- Dave Lissy, Bright Horizons CEO

COMPUTERTOTS/COMPUTER EXPLORERS
Before children turn 4, their brains reach 90% development. Introducing technology education at an early age, when children are learning through play, exploration, and discovery, integrated with other core subjects, provides a tremendous advantage.

Our preschool classrooms are enrolling now for Computer Explorers. Classes are being held weekly for a fee of $32.00 per month. For more information please call 816-276-4610
