    8 Habits

    "We only get one chance to prepare our students for a future that none of us can possibly predict. What are we going to do with that one chance?"

    Stephen R. Covey

    The world has entered an era of the most profound change in human history, creating new challenges for today's students. Meeting these challenges will require a different skill set than previous generations. In an effort to provide our students with key skills vital for the 21st century, we teach Stephen Covey's 7 habits through the Leader in Me process.

    • Habit 1: Be Proactive – or -  You're in Charge
    • Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind – or -   Have a Plan
    • Habit 3: Put First Things First – or -   Work First, Then Play
    • Habit 4: Think Win-Win – or -  Everyone Can Win
    • Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood -or- Listen Before You Talk
    • Habit 6: Synergize -or-  Together Is Better
    • Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw -or- Balance Feels Best
    • Habit 8: Find your Voice -or- Inspire Others

    This program is built on the premise that every child can develop the essential life skills and characteristics necessary to thrive in the 21st century. Some of these skills include leadership, accountability, adaptability, initiative and self-direction, cross-cultural skills, responsibility, problem-solving, communication, creativity and teamwork. Through this program, we teach a generation of leaders one child at a time.

  • Interactions Program

    Interactions Program

    This program provides academic programming in a small group setting for children who display characteristics within the Autism Spectrum Disorder. The classroom provides a higher adult to child ratio than in a regular program.  The Interactions program is focused on improving the developmental, social and communication skills of the students.

    Staff in the program are knowledgeable in the area of Autism Spectrum Disorder and there is ongoing training throughout the year.

    A number of strategies are employed to help students reach their potential.  A sensory room with specific equipment will provide students opportunities to improve their fine and gross motor skills as well as regulate their sensory needs.

    Communication skills will be developed both in and outside of the classroom. Students will have the opportunity to be integrated into other classrooms, when appropriate, to focus on socialization and/or academic skills.

    Interested parents are encouraged to call and arrange a time to visit the program.
