The Primary Program
Each year there will be students who progress academically, physically, socially and/or mentally to the point that they would benefit by moving to a level that offers more challenging opportunities to match their development. Readiness criteria differs from level to level and program placements are not determined solely by academic ability or age.

The Primary Program
2.5 years to 6 years of age
This Primary Program serves children ages 2.5 years to 6 years old, who have mastered toilet learning. Children in the Primary program work with materials independently at their own pace to accomplish the goals established by both the child and the guide. The child in this program has reached a stage in which repetition and manipulation of the environment are critical to the development of concentration, coordination, independence, and a sense of order. The child learns skills for everyday living, sorting, grading, and classifying – all of which lead to the development of skills in writing and reading, and the formation of the mathematical mind.
