Here at Little Stars, it is our belief that the foundation for a successful early childhood education is the fostering of a positive self-image. In this regard, our program is based on the understanding that each child's development is an individual process. We strive to meet the individual needs of the whole child through social, emotional, cognitive and physical development.Little Stars is dedicated to providing a safe and joyful beginning for all of our children. Each classroom provides an environment where children are free to interact, inquire and extend their understanding through hands-on experiences. In this way, children are encouraged to grow in an atmosphere that is nurturing, accepting of individual differences and developmentally appropriate.Our philosophy regards the years of early childhood as being of crucial importance for the development of full adult potential in the areas of personality, emotional stability and intellectual growth. Every opportunity is provided for the individual child to flourish and grow in the healthiest possible environment. Our program is designed to provide intellectual stimulation and also practices and teaches human values and healthy attitudes.We, as educators, are receptive to change and are responsive to new theories in early childhood education. Our school makes a great effort to teach children to learn how to work and play both independently and cooperatively, and live effectively with other children.

Awful

This school was nothing but a headache from day one. My daughter attended this place b4 the new yr started i decided to pull her out and put her in a private school. The teachers were quick to judge my child for the simplest things. Being the my child can read,write, knows their shapes color and can count to over 100, she didn't need much but social skills to prepare her for a real school. I should have known something was wrong when my 4 yr old says mom why would you take me to such am asinine place? I just thought my daughter is a little smarty pants but as weeks passed by I started to realize how right she was. I know what your thinking what 4 yr old talks like that whole mines does, her vocabulary is very extensive, so bright that I'm thinking of her her tested for giftedness. Instead of the school recognizing her talents it's more like that reprimand her instead. Then there school volunteer not a certified teacher says to me this may not be the right environment for her bc she's soo smart but they think she may have autism or add/ADHD do being the good mother that I am I have her evaluated, she does not have neither,shes just too smart. I don't trust these people at all. They are uncertified, not professional and certainly do not teach the children a thing. I asked her what she does in. Lass lass there she said" we have to sit in the circle time for a very long time

With our fingers like this( she held her finger to her mouth) until the teacher says so" I asked her what class work has she done she never does any Maybe a class project once a month. I would not recommend this place to any parent.
