About Us
Our role is to supplement, but not take the place of, the primary role of families in providing care for their children. By establishing and maintaining open and ongoing communication with families, we are able to strengthen the ties that connect the home with our center and enhance the individual development of the children in our care. When families entrust their children to us, we are challenged to have a significant and positive influence by providing a program of the highest quality designed to help give children the foundation they need to build self-esteem, develop school readiness, and reach their full potential in learning.
Our Mission
The mission of Galaxy Kids Academy is to be a leader in child education, inspiring lifelong learning by providing a quality program that benefits the child, the parent, the staff, and the community.
Our Philosophy Galaxy
Kids Academy strives to provide a quality Early Childhood Education Program filled with carefully chosen staff members, filled with love and compassion for children. We believe that children are our most important resource and that their early childhood experiences are crucial in the development of their future. Each staff member strives to offer an environment that is high in quality and stimulates the child’s senses and where warmth and friendship are abundant, to meet the needs of the total development of your child. The program we pursue is geared toward helping your child develop habits of observation, questioning and listening while building a positive self-esteem. Our staff members are partners with our parents working together to meet both the needs of the children and their families.
Our Goals
Galaxy Kids Academy strives to provide an educational program to every child enrolled while offering a network of support to each family as a whole. Our teachers work in partnership with each family to identify individual goals and plans for the children. The curriculum we implement provides a comprehensive program for children and work toward development in the areas of communication, gross motor, fine motor, problemsolving, and personal-social.
As children 3, 4, and 5 years-old transition into our preschool program, their goals focus on developing approaches to learning, social and emotional development, physical development and health, language, literacy, and communication, mathematics, creative arts, science and technology, and social studies. Progress occurs when adults scaffold the children’s learning. Teachers support children at their current skill levels as well as provide opportunities for them to advance toward the next level of development. Program success requires a strong partnership with each family. Teachers, administrators, and parents work together to utilize a variety of resources within the program as well as the community, to ensure that all members of the family receive the support they need and/or desire.
