CHP believes a nurturing program that fosters emotional, social, and cognitive skills through a scaffolded learning environment of structured and unstructured experiences is imperative in Preschool. We have found the Montessori method combined with the traditional learning approach fosters a positive and successful environment for our students. Emphasis on pre-literacy skills are taught with varied instruction in phonemic awareness, alphabet principles with speech/sound correlations. Multi-sensory learning is incorporated in the instruction of number sense, numeration, Social Studies and Science as they apply to daily life.
Students are integrated into the school-wide curriculum with classes in World Language, Art, Music, Guidance, Technology, Gym, and CHP special events. These become the building blocks that allow a fluid transition into Kindergarten and the early Elementary School.
