Statement of Purpose
 The programs at Just For Kids will meet the needs of the children by providing the opportunity to be creative during arts and crafts, music, and dramatic play. Areas for growth in fine and gross motor are also incorporated into our daily programs. Daily activities are suited to the age level and developmental stage of for each child.
The teachers work as a team to provide knowledge and enrichment activities to help the children learn about their world and develop activities to think and communicate with others to help the child achieve social and emotional growth.
There is a balance of active and quiet play, nutritious snacks, in and out-door activities and opportunity for toileting, resting, art, and quiet activities. During free choice time the children will have the opportunity to play in small groups or alone. Our regular daily schedule provides the children with a structured and consistent routine, which provides the children with a predictable environment.
We encourage parent interaction through parent meetings, and parents will be welcome to participate in classroom activities. Parent meetings are held on an as needed basis. Parents may request a conference at any time.
