MISSION STATEMENT – Our goal is to provide high-quality early childhood education that nurtures children’s cognitive, emotional, physical and social development, while adhering to advanced academic standards in the subjects of reading, language, and mathematics and by immersing children into the areas of the arts as well as science through the use of a teacher-directed balance of child-initiated, free-choice activities and intentional, teacher-directed instruction.

The Big Future Preschool program is based upon the standards defined by the Preschool Learning Foundation from the California Department of Education. The curriculum is coordinated with local kindergarten instruction and applies researched strategies to prepare children for the transition to the classroom. Attention to appropriate work and play helps children develop socially and emotionally.

Preschoolers are active learners, who thrive in environments that stimulate their interest and nurture emotional understanding and interpersonal skills. Big Future Preschool provides self-directed learning opportunities to build student knowledge and core skills through play, problem-solving and group interaction in literacy, math, science and art.

All Big Future Preschool staff meets federal guidelines, have credits in Early Childhood Education and have passed training and background clearances. Instructional lessons are taught by certified staff and teachers who are monitored by a leadership team including academic and physical education directors.

Parent conferences are held to share progress and collaborate on each child’s evolving needs. Program effectiveness on an individual and collective level is measured by analyzing student progression on literacy, writing and math skills, as well as observation of physical, emotional and social behaviors.
