Saluting Our Veterans

Happy Veteran's Day! Today is a very special day for a lot of our community. So many of our teachers have family that are Veterans & that's not including all of our AoMM families who have family that are active in the Military & are Vets themselves. Today we salute our brave Vets & thank them!

Our Preschool 2 & 3 class had a wonderful time waving & thanking all the passing cars. They were so excited as the cars honked when they passed by.

KINDERGARTEN BOOT CAMP: AN ACADEMY EXCLUSIVE

The Academy is recognized by the community for our kindergarten specific programs including our one-of-a-kind Kindergarten Boot Camp. Our Pre-K program includes hands-on explorations that create new learning connections in language, math, science, social, emotional and physical development. Children investigate “Big Ideas” and are actively involved in seeking answers to their own questions. Intentional daily plans cover a specific range of guidelines that prepare our children to meet and exceed kindergarten readiness standards for both public and private schools. Kindergarten Boot Camp, offered exclusively by Never Grow Up, is a dedicated summer program that teaches important, yet often overlooked, skills needed to navigate kindergarten with confidence. Skills such as remembering a lunch number, carrying a lunch tray or returning a library book are examples of how we “train” our Academy kids to “be all they can be”!
