Preschool and Pre-K: Ages 3-5 Years
Preschool and Pre-K: Ages 3-5 Years
A child’s preschool learning experience can shape his or her academic career. We recognize the need for a strong foundation in academics and physical, social, and emotional development. Our goal at Lionheart Children’s Academy is to work in partnership with parents to set children on the path to a life-long love of learning. Our preschool program is designed to provide developmentally appropriate activities that build children’s skill sets, their confidence, and self-esteem, resulting in kindergarten readiness. Our “whole child” approach gives children the best possible start in learning and in life.

We Use the Experience Early Learning Curriculum®
The Experience Early Learning Preschool and Pre-K Curriculum is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum carefully designed to provide a rich academic foundation and foster child creativity, confidence, and independence. The curriculum includes defined teaching practices that create engaging classrooms where all children can thrive.
The Experience Early Learning Approach
We believe that education is the most effective when children are interested, engaged, supported, and encouraged. Our goal is to support children in becoming independent, responsible, and confident problem solvers and decision makers that are ready for school and ready for life.
Experience Early Learning Curriculum Content Areas
Learning is focused on eight content areas: Approaches to Learning, Social and Emotional Development, Physical Development and Health, Language, Literacy and Communication, Cognitive Development, Creative Arts, Math, Science and Technology, and Social Studies.
The Experience Early Learning Difference
Our curriculum not only focuses on your child’s academic success, but also promotes the fundamental skills needed for success in life--independence, curiosity, decision-making, cooperation, persistence, creativity, and problem-solving.
First Look Faith-Based Curriculum
We support children’s spiritual development with our First Look Curriculum, which is based on 3 foundational principles: God made me, God loves me, and Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Our faith-based curriculum is taught through integration of small and large group lessons.
