Afternoon Kindergarten Care
Our kindergarten program is aligned with curriculum for Upper Arlington schools. We use the same phonics/reading curriculum and also follow the new math program. We do daily writing/drawing in journals as well as calendar and weather observations. There is also lots of time for socialization, free choice activities, and dramatic play.
