This year is full of exciting growth—songs, letters, numbers, shapes, and scissor skills are all part of the daily rhythm. Children are challenged at their individual developmental levels, and social-emotional skills blossom as they learn to work together and become kind, contributing members of their classroom community.
Daily Schedule
The Imagine Room begins the day with breakfast, followed by outdoor play on the playground. Afterward, children gather for Circle Time, which includes stories, songs, and large group activities focused on math, literacy, and social skills.
Next comes Open Centers, where children rotate through learning areas based on the weekly theme. Teachers work one-on-one with students, adapting activities to meet each child’s needs. Open Centers make up the majority of the morning, followed by lunch. Handwashing and bathroom breaks are built into the routine to support independence and hygiene.

Adventure Room (Before & After Care + Future Expansion Plans)
The Adventure Room currently serves as our space for before- and after-care, providing extended-day support for families.
We are actively working toward expanding our program to serve younger children, with the goal of converting this space—or another classroom—into a dedicated one-year-old room. To move forward, we are pursuing state grants, licensing inspections, and demonstrating community need.
One of the most powerful ways to support this effort is through letters written by parents and caregivers. These letters help show the state that there is real demand for infant care in our community—something that cannot be conveyed as strongly by administrators alone.
