Theoretically, the Center is a developmental education program. Since children of a wide variety of ages and stages attend, the first consideration is the child's emotional well being. We create an environment that stimulates a variety of learning experiences in all areas of cognitive, physical, social and emotional development. These experiences enable children to build self-esteem, learn acceptable methods of cooperation, and become competent individuals within a group setting. Back to table of contents.
Teachers prepare the learning environment and plan experiences based on typical development.
Individual appropriateness Each child is unique with an individual personality, learning style, family background, and pattern of growth. Individuality is respected in all interactions with each child. ASI Children's Center is available to everyone without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, or physical disability. Additionally, no religious instruction is provided. Back to table of contents.
