HistoryWe were set to open in 2020 unfortunately, the world went to a stand still while a pandemic effecting out daily living and ultimately limited the ways a preschooler learns. We noticed that once schools were beginning to reopen, 5 year olds weren't ready with the skills needed to be successful at the start of their academic careers, mainly due to the lack of socialization that every early learner needs along with a structured environment that can prepare them for the elementary level. We decided to focus on those children at North Campus. Our class sizes are small with a maximum capacity of 4 children per classroom to increase individualized attention and customize their learning experience by meeting each child where they are, creating an action plan, and providing them with resources to excel beyond their current and goal levels. We train for excellence and would love to train your child to be FULL Steam Ahead!!SpecialtiesFull S.T.E.A.M.
