POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS
with caring and responsive adults who nurture a sense of trust and respect for others.
CONSISTENT DAILY ROUTINES
which provides the comfortable predictability important to young children and their developing feelings of competence.
THOUGHTFULLY PLANNED OPPORTUNITIES
throughout the day introduce and support meaningful learning. Teachers are guided by HighScope’s active learning curriculum, as well as each child’s interests, needs, and abilities. Teaching begins where the child is, leading and encouraging each one to increased understanding and independence.
ACQUIRING SKILLS

The child’s curiosity and natural motivation to learn is stimulated through daily opportunities for imaginative play indoors and out, ongoing projects, creative arts, structured and spontaneous music and movement, active involvement with science, math, literature and literacy, and regular walk-abouts and field trips.St. Matthew’s seeks to lay a foundation for success in a complex and changing world by inspiring an enthusiasm for learning and an awareness of the unique value of each person as a child of God in a caring community.
