Parents' Comments

Parent #1
CCDC has teachers for different curriculum areas in addition to his regular classroom teachers and activities. He attends physical activity class, music class, chapel, science and is even starting to learn to use computers (at 2 years old).

Parent #2
Each of these skills in each area is introduced by the teacher. The children are then encouraged to use the information they have learned through teacher-led instruction in centers that rotate each week, according to the theme/letter of the week.

Parent #3
A lot of the above categories fell somewhere inbetween predominantly teacher led and free play with some structure.

Parent #4
I love that they 'change classrooms' several times a day and go to different activities. Most classes appear to be teacher led, but have free play aspects to them.
