Kindergarten Readiness Skills
The philosophy of our preschool program is that young children can
develop a strong self image through the use of positive re-enforcement
in a preschool curriculum that enhances cognitive, motor, language
and social skills which increases kindergarten readiness.
Our day encourages activities in math, reading, science, language
development, fine and gross motor skills.
We strive in building kindergarten readiness skills by helping them
develop positive self-esteem, participate in decision making, adjust
to routines and transitions, and to socialize with other children
in appropriate ways. They are also encouraged to respect classmates,
teachers and themselves.
These goals are achieved through a variety of hands-on activities
and experiences that address the whole child and seek to make learning
fun. Our professional staff ensures that individual needs are met
and nurtured in a warm, loving and supportive environment.
Kindergarten Readiness Score
When
a child completes the VPK program, a screening is completed during
the first 30 days of kindergarten. The screening measures alphabet
recognition, sound recognition, listening comprehension and vocabulary.
Once the children from a particular school are screened, the school
is assigned a “Kindergarten Readiness Rate”.
Officials determine the rate, using a 200-point scale by matching
each kindergarten student’s screening scores to where he or
she attended Pre-K.
We are very pleased to announce that The Learning Center
Preschool received a perfect score of 200 on the Readiness Rate.
Please visit the website at www.vpk.fldoe.org
Our hope is that every child leaves our school with a solid foundation
on which knowledge and positive self-esteem can grow and flourish. |
