Training Children
Our Programs:
We believe that growth is a sequential and orderly process; and there is no child who cannot learn.

Our Pre-K program is dedicated to the enrichment of the "whole child." Our preschooal program provides healthy breakfast, snacks, and lunch throughout the year.

Our Curriculum:
Here at Training Children Childcare and Learning Center we focus on a Christian High-Scope philosophy and build our curriculum on spiritual techniques that meet the needs of the "whole-child".
The age appropriate, anti-bias curriculum has been devised by Christian teachers and administrators and contains day-by-day lesson plans for the entire year!
Key Experiences:
- Math Concepts
- Planning and Adapting the Learning Environment
- Teacher-led group activities
- Assessments of child's progress
At TCC, children engage in learning areas throughout the classroom with a variety of learning materials available for building, dramatic play, arts, reading & writing, music & movement, science, sensory, and motor development. These "Educational Movements" are planned so children can actively manipulate and experience objects and then represent what they have learned.
