The School

at Discovery Village

A Reggio Emilia Inspired Preschool

Now Enrolling!

We are a Reggio-inspired program. We view children as capable problem solvers, explorers, innovators, communicators, and valued members of our society, and we help them develop those skills. 

Communication

Communication

At The School at Discovery Village, we prioritize teaching good communication skills as foundational to every child's development. Through interactive play, storytelling, and group activities all in our small class size setting, we cultivate an environment where children learn to express their thoughts and emotions effectively.


We focus on active listening, using words kindly, and understanding non-verbal cues, laying the groundwork for strong relationships and confident self-expression. By nurturing these skills early on, we empower our preschoolers to engage with the world around them with clarity, empathy, and respect.

Empowerment

Empowerment

We believe in fostering empowerment from the very start. Through child-led exploration, collaboration with peers, and hands-on experiences, we encourage each child to discover their unique voice and capabilities. Our environment is designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking, empowering young learners to express themselves confidently and contribute meaningfully to their learning journey.


By embracing the principles of respect, collaboration, and documentation, we aim to nurture not only academic skills but also a lifelong passion for learning and self-expression in every child.

Critical Thinking
Critical Thinking In our Reggio Emilia-inspired preschool program, teaching critical thinking is at the heart of every learning experience. Through exploration, experimentation, and collaboration, children are encouraged to question, hypothesize, and problem-solve independently and in groups. Our curriculum emphasizes hands-on activities and projects that spark curiosity and foster creative thinking.

By documenting children's ideas and reflections, we celebrate their unique perspectives and empower them to confidently navigate challenges and discover meaningful connections in their learning journey. Together, we cultivate a community where young minds thrive with curiosity, inquiry, and a passion for exploring the world around them.
Compassion

Compassion

Teaching compassion as a fundamental value is a priority at The School at Discovery Village. Through stories, activities, and daily interactions, we nurture empathy and kindness in every child. We encourage children to understand and respect the feelings of others, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued.

By modeling compassionate behavior and emphasizing cooperation and sharing, we cultivate a sense of empathy that extends beyond our classrooms, preparing children to be caring and respectful members of their communities.

Citizenship

Citizenship

The School at Discovery Village believes in nurturing good citizenship from the earliest ages. Through age-appropriate activities and discussions, we introduce children to the concepts of community, responsibility, and respect for others. We encourage cooperation, sharing, and taking turns to instill a sense of belonging and contribution.

By exploring themes of diversity and inclusivity, we help children understand their role in creating a positive and supportive environment. Through these experiences, we aim to foster a foundation of social awareness and empathy, preparing our young learners to become thoughtful and engaged citizens in their future communities.

Respect

Teaching respect is central to creating a nurturing and inclusive environment. We emphasize the importance of treating others kindly, listening attentively, and valuing different perspectives.
