CLASSROOMS ARE INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED TO SERVE THE NEEDS OF 18 MONTHS THROUGH 36 MONTH OLD CHILDREN. THROUGH THE GUIDANCE OF ONE TRAINED TEACHER AND ONE ASSISTANT, CHILDREN IN THE YCC PROGRAM WORK TO DEVELOP LANGUAGE AND FINE MOTOR SKILLS AS WELL AS SOCIALIZATION SKILLS. IN ADDITION, THE CHILDREN LEARN ABOUT SELF-CARE AND CARE OF THE CLASSROOM ENVIRONMENT. THE YCC PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE CHILDREN TO FREELY EXPRESS THEMSELVES AND DISCOVER THEIR POTENTIAL THROUGH GUIDANCE AND MODELING FROM ADULTS. AS THEY BECOME MORE CAPABLE, THE CHILDREN WILL CONTINUE TO EXPLORE AND DISCOVER THEIR ABILITIES AS INDEPENDENT BEINGS.

CHILDREN IN THIS AGE RANGE POSSESS A STRONG INTERNAL DRIVE TO EXPLORE THE WORLD AROUND THEM AND HAVE A TREMENDOUS CAPACITY FOR LEARNING. THROUGH THE GUIDANCE OF THEIR TEACHER AND ASSISTANT, THE CHILDREN ARE ABLE TO MAKE INDEPENDENT, AGE-APPROPRIATE CHOICES IN THE AREAS OF SELF-CARE, LANGUAGE, MATHEMATICS, ART, ETC. THE CHILDREN ALSO DEVELOP THEIR SENSORY AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS. ELEMENTARY COMMUNITY - THE ELEMENTARY COMMUNITY IS FOR CHILDREN BETWEEN THE AGES OF 6 AND 12, AND IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE CHILD IN HIS OR HER PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. STUDENTS AT THIS AGE EXPLORE REASONS AND CAUSES AND USE THEIR POWERS OF ABSTRACTION TO LEARN ABOUT THINGS WHICH THEY CANNOT PERCEIVE DIRECTLY. THE ELEMENTARY COMMUNITY PROGRAM ALSO PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS TO EXPLORE AND RESEARCH THOSE AREAS OF INTEREST. ADOLESCENT PROGRAM COMMUNITY - THE ADOLESCENT PROGRAM COMMUNITY IS DESIGNED FOR STUDENTS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 12 AND 15 YEARS OLD TO MEET THE NEEDS OF EARLY TEENS IN THE MIDST OF BECOMING YOUNG ADULTS. THE PROGRAM MAKES LEARNING RELEVANT, INCORPORATING PROJECT-BASED LEARNING IN NEARLY ALL OF THE COURSES OF STUDY AND DISCIPLINARY SUBJECTS OFFERED.
