As students progress from preschool through upper school, the AES curriculum insures that each student is presented with developmentally appropriate materials. To maximize each student’s potential, creative and critical thinking skills are emphasized in an environment of supportive learning. Small class size and teacher-to-student ratios allow for an intimate, interpersonal atmosphere. The home and school connection is valued, and parental support is highly desired.

Recognizing that young children function at a concrete level of thinking, the Ascension Preschool provides active learning through exploration. Skills are taught with the manipulation of real materials in practical and motivating ways. The variety of activities offers opportunities to develop language, social skills and problem solving while developing a child’s self esteem and positive feelings toward learning. The Ascension Preschool offers a safe, nurturing, child-friendly environment to begin a lifetime of learning.
