Director's Comments
Confidence, emotional balance, sensory integration and efficient strategies are crucial to successful learning. These are the internal structures that enable a child to access, analyze, synthesize and utilize information with ease and mimimal stress. At Kachina, we place strong emphasis on helping your child, at the most natural stages, develop these internal structures.
