Our Philosophy

ABC Spectrum Preschool implements the High/Scope developmental approach to learning. "In the High/Scope educational approach, children are active learners, supported and challenged by adults. The content of preschoolers' learning is guided by 58 key experiences in language and literacy, mathematics and science, social-emotional development, physical development and the arts. The heart of the High/Scope approach is the plan-do-review sequence in which children make choices, carry out their ideas, and reflect on what they learned. These activities promote initiative and independence. In addition, children engage in group activities, socialize during meals, develop self-care skills, and exercise large muscles during outdoor time."*
