Play Academy wants you to know that your child is in a secure, safe environment when they are at our center. Each parent or authorized personnel will be given a secure login to enter the classroom areas. Our center also uses video surveillance cameras that record each classroom throughout the day to monitor our children and teachers. We believe children learn better in a secure, safe, and comfortable environment.
We use creative, high quality, developmentally appropriate High/Scope curriculum and teacher resources. The curriculum provides a balance of daily teacher-directed activities and child-directed activities. Our teacher’s goal is to make learning fun and help prepare your child for the future.
