Back to School

 At The Academy of McKay's Mill, the excitement of a new school year is palpable. To kick off this academic journey, educators have reintroduced the Frogstreet curriculum with a refreshing twist. For toddlers, it's all about self-discovery with the theme "All About Me." Threes dive into the exciting theme of "Awesome Me," while Pre-K students embark on the journey of "My School and Me."

In addition to these engaging curricular choices, teachers have incorporated valuable tools from Conscious Discipline. One such technique is the use of "balloon breathing," which helps little ones learn to manage their emotions and foster a sense of calm in the classroom.

At The Academy of McKay's Mill, the school motto "Grow, Learn, Play" isn't just a catchy phrase; it's the guiding principle that drives the educational experience. As these young minds grow, they are encouraged to learn not just academically but also socially and emotionally, all while having a ton of fun in the process. It's an exciting start to another promising school year.
