Friday our center was full of such joy! We welcomed a group of senior citizens for a morning filled with fun and friendship. The children enjoyed stories, hugs, and delivering our share your care rocks to our   special guests. It was heartwarming to see the joy and laughter shared between generations — from high-fives to hugs, the room was filled with love.

Let's Breathe!

 In Preschool 4, we are learning that big feelings are a normal part of growing and learning—but what matters most is how we handle them. This week, our class focused on practicing calm and control using Conscious Discipline techniques.

Academy Energy!

 Our teachers showed up with all of The Academy energy bright and early. Fall conference was full of learning and growing together. We feel refreshed, recharged and ready to start the school year!

Let Them Play- Soccer Shots visit

 At The Academy, we believe that play is more than just fun—it’s how children learn, grow, and thrive. From building teamwork to practicing problem-solving, every game and giggle is helping our little ones build important life skills. That’s why our theme this week was “Let Them Play.”

We had an extra-special treat when Soccer Shots came to visit! The children had a blast running, kicking, and learning new moves from the coaches. Their faces lit up as they dribbled, chased the ball, and celebrated each small victory. It was wonderful to see how play not only strengthens bodies but also builds confidence and joy.

Lets Build!

This summer at The Academy, our preschoolers put on their hard hats and big imaginations for Let’s Build Week! From tiny towers to giant pretend bridges, our classrooms were buzzing with creativity, teamwork, and plenty of giggles.

Rockin' into Kindergarten: The Final Tour

We celebrated a milestone that is both exciting and bittersweet: our Pre-K kiddos took the stage for their final preschool performance before they head off to kindergarten!

With big smiles and a few happy tears, families gathered to watch as our Pre-K students rocked their hearts out during their end-of-year celebration. From fun songs to silly dances, each child shined in their own special way, showing off the confidence and skills they have developed throughout the year.

It’s hard to believe how much they’ve grown—from the shy, curious explorers they were at the beginning of the year to the confident, kind friends they have become today. As teachers, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing them stand proudly in front of their families, ready to take on their next adventure.

We couldn’t be prouder of each and every one of them.
They are ready to take on kindergarten with courage, joy, and curiosity, and we know they will continue to shine as they grow.

To our families: thank you for sharing your children with us and trusting us to be part of their early learning journey. To our Pre-K graduates: keep rocking, keep exploring, and keep being YOU. Kindergarten, here they come!
