The
balanced curriculum offered at EAEE is designed to expand and stimulate
not only the intellectual growth of each child, but also their emotional,
social and physical development.
Students move through specially designed and equipped classroom
learning centers where they explore and develop an understanding and
appreciation for: art, drama,
music, Spanish, language arts, math, science, social studies, computer
technology, etiquette, gymnastics, sign language, current events, and
keyboarding. Our staff has
been carefully selected to provide positive role modeling that exhibits
the highest standards of excellence.
Our
Academic Program includes all the disciplines listed in the preceding
paragraph. The program is
open and available to all children between the ages of 3 through first
grade. Our commitment to
parents is to allow children to grow and develop to their highest
potential.

Extended Care
Program
An optional Extended Care program is available for students in preschool

day.
Extended care can be arranged on a
yearly, monthly, daily or periodic basis (when available) depending on the
needs of individual parents.
There is an additional charge for extended care.
Children will be allowed
to bring one small cuddly toy and their favorite blanket for comfort. Otherwise, we discourage bringing
toys to school. Personal toys
frequently create distractions and they may get lost or broken in an
environment where many children of varied interests play and
interact. We encourage
students to play with the many toys available at school.
