Children are great explorers and deep thinkers

Here at AppleGate Academy & Preschool of the Arts, we work hard to cultivate stable, nurturing relationships, as well as a rich, kid-friendly, stable environment so that each child has the opportunity to explore in a space especially for them!

 

Our exceptional group of handpicked, degreed, and credentialed teachers guides and facilitates the learning process by promoting readiness skills and developing an ongoing individual assessment for each child that addresses physical, social, emotional and intellectual development.

 

Our programs are structured in its approach. Each child can move freely to exploratory centers where children experience hands on math skills, pre-reading and pre-writing activities, discovery science, social science skills, social and play skills, art and music, computers, and life skills. AppleGate’s teachers provide the personal individual attention and the developmentally appropriate pacing which allows each child to grow in a natural progression.

The pathway to school readiness means scientific, researched-proven educational activities designed for your child's future academic success. Our programs provide structure while also embracing your child's independence and individual eagerness to learn.

Mother Goose Time
(Infants, Ones, Twos)

The Mother Goose curriculum system uniquely weaves 33 research-based skills into playful games and projects.

 

As children participate, they naturally grow in all areas of development, including social-emotional, physical, language and cognitive development.

Spring is Here

I see a butterfly, flying high.
I see a rainbow in the sky.
Jump in puddles, laugh and play.
Springtime fun is here to stay.
Let’s go outside, run so fast.
Feel the breeze as we dance past.
Spring is here, let’s all cheer,
The BEST time of the year!

Scripture of the Month

Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss

Happy birthday to Dr. Seuss, the master of rhymes who filled our shelves with silly creatures, sneaky foxes, and lessons that still make kids and grown-ups smile. His birthday is the perfect reason to read a favorite together, let your imagination run wild, and remember that a good story can turn any ordinary day into an adventure.

Shamrock Cookies

Yes, these shamrock sugar cookies are the perfect treat to serve at a St. Patrick’s Day party, but use a different cookie cutter and a d ifferent food coloring—or leave out the food coloring entirely for a sweet treat on any occasion.
