Curriculum Philosophy Statement
Growing Places provides learning situations that are flexible, developmentally appropriate, child directed and mindful of differences and individuality. We believe teaching involves educating the whole child through being role models in problem solving and conflict resolution. We offer stimulating, hands on experiences through exploration of our natural environment while building on individual and family experiences and providing opportunities for new experiences that are based on our goals for each child’s development.
