Educational Philosophy
The most meaningful way to help children learn and reach their fullest potential is to assist them in developing their ability to think, question, and validate their curiosity about the world. The Renaissance Children’s Center believes that children learn through actively participating in activities and projects that engage their individual curiosity and imaginations. The experiences we provide allow each child the freedom to explore and learn about topics that interest them. Children are respected as individuals in a child-oriented, versus teacher directed, program.
The care and education of each child is based on a partnership between the Center and the child’s family. As such the Center’s programs provide activities and services that involve and value the family and the community. Our programs are enriched when parents and other community members lend their expertise to topics of study.
Our teachers and staff provide security, stimulation, support, limits, and affection in a predictable, nurturing environment. We understand that before becoming independent, a child must know he or she can depend on adults.
