Curriculum

Preschoolers at Years to Grow are introduced to various STEAM learning methods and activities each week. Our creative curriculum for our early childhood students involves learning activities that require active thinking and experimenting to find out how things work. The primary curriculum of ABEKA provides optimal learning opportunities for our Preschoolers that strategically help children grasp early literacy, language, math and science concepts and pair perfectly together to give our students an edge over underexposed children of the same age.


The ABEKA program is our primary education curriculum. If you care to know more about their curriculum:

Parlez vous Francais?

French Lessons

Conversational French lessons are held twice a week with Madam Kelly Schexnaider. The benefits of a foreign language are to develop near "native-like" pronunciation and intonation in a new language. Intelligence theories reveal there are sharp increases in a child's ability to apply critical thinking skills, maintain a higher reading comprehension level and apply superior writing skills when a child can speak, read and write, in multiple languages. By exposing and teaching our students French, we, at Years to Grow are supporting and embracing our French Heritage through creativity and expository experiences supporting the French culture.
