Dear Parents,
Thank you for your interest in Sunshine School! We have been welcoming families to our school for over 40 years.
At Sunshine, we believe that children have one childhood and it should be treasured, not hurried or diminished. Play is a basic component of a child’s health and well being. We make it a huge part of the Sunshine experience. The children learn through our play-based curriculum.
“Play is fundamentally important for learning 21st century skills, such as problem solving, collaboration and creativity.”
~ American Academy of Pediatrics
Our teachers are supportive and nurturing. They strive to capture the heart and imagination of every child, enabling each one to find the joy of discovery and the adventure inherent in learning. They foster a love of learning in all the children by introducing them to the wonders of the world around them in a safe environment that encourages curiosity and teamwork. All of them are mothers themselves and many of them, like myself, have sent their own children to Sunshine School.
We value our partnership with parents. We believe that parental involvement is a crucial part of any program. We know that children attain more academic success and gain more confidence when their parents are involved in their educational experience. We make sure to keep the lines of communication open through informal conversations, parent/teacher conferences and school events.
Our school is governed by our Board of Directors. Made up of elected parent volunteers, the Board’s biggest responsibility is to help Sunshine School keep its mission and philosophy at the forefront of every decision we make. It is a wonderful opportunity for parents to get involved.
I know that as parents, you have many choices available to you as you make the important decision about preschool. As you read about our school and our goals for the education of your child, I hope that Sunshine School will prove to be just the place you had in mind.
Sincerely yours,
Kassie Hunt
Director
Sunshine School, Inc.
