Our School
Capstone Students score top in the Country AGAIN!
Philisophy
Capstone Academy and Preschool believes that children learn best when they are actively engaged in fun learning activities. We feel that early experiences enrich and stimulate future growth. Children deserve to be respected and treated as individuals in an environment that welcomes reason, exploration, questioning, and imagination. Capstone Academy and Preschool program provides structure through child-initiated and teacher-planned activities in a safe, healthy, and happy atmosphere. Children need to have an opportunity to manipulate concrete materials, with teachers being an active facilitator, to increase the child’s learning experience. Capstone Academy and Preschool program builds on the child’s interests with special emphasis on language, computers, early reading, science and outdoor experiences. Additional emphasis is focused on art, music, Spanish, sign language, math, and dramatic play.
