ROGERS-PIERCE CHILDREN'S CENTER INC

TO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN TO GROW SOCIALLY, EMOTIONALLY, INTELLECTUALLY AND PHYSICALLY IN A WARM ENVIRONMENT. WE WANT OUR CHILDREN TO BUILD A POSITIVE SELF-IMAGE; DISCOVER THEIR CREATIVE SPIRIT; LEARN PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS; DEVELOP SELF-CONTROL AND CONSIDERATION OF OTHERS; INCREASE COORDINATION AND BALANCE, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - KNOW THAT LEARNING IS FUN! RPCC BELIEVES THAT EARLY YEARS OF LEARNING ARE THE MOST VALUABLE. CHILDREN LEARN THROUGH PLAY, CONSTRUCTING THEIR KNOWLEDGE BY TOUCHING, TASTING, SMELLING, WATCHING, LISTENING, THINKING, AND DOING. OUR CURRICULUM ENCOURAGES CHOICE-MAKING, AUTONOMY, AND SOCIAL COMPETENCE. THE EXPLORATION OF MUSIC AND MOVEMENT, SCIENCE AND NATURE, FAMILIES AND CULTURE, ART AND NUMBERS IS INTEGRATED INTO THE DAY. AND, WE ENCOURAGE EACH CHILD TO EXPLORE, EXPERIMENT, AND DEVELOP SKILLS AT HIS/HER OWN LEVEL OF ABILITY.
