This class comes for two days per week.

In addition to the focus on social skills, we introduce an academic program which includes pre-reading, basic math, letter recognition, shapes, colors, and sequencing. Fine and gross motor activities help children be ready for the various tasks. Bible lessons are taught through Bible stories, life lessons and chapel. We offer a two-day and three-day program.
