Meet Our Staff
Our faculty and staff are culturally diverse and their uniqueness and specialties will enhance all children’s languages. Our program is privileged to have a pedagogical team that consists of: An administrator who is in charge of orchestrating the dynamics and administration of the whole community (students, parents, teachers and staff). An “atelierista” and a “pedagogista” who work directly with the teachers and children developing specific projects and assisting them in the cultural and academic aspects of the curriculum and documentation. Our teachers and co-teachers who are constantly observing and documenting children’s languages as they reflect their development. Based upon this information, they plan an Emergent Curriculum.
