Our Approach
Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to nurture curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning. We integrate foundational skills like math, early reading, science, and mindfulness into engaging, hands-on activities. Children learn through play, exploration, and structured routines, fostering emotional, intellectual, social, and physical growth. With a focus on self-regulation, confidence, and wonder, we prepare children for kindergarten and beyond, laying a strong foundation for their future.
Mindful Mornings
At Raising Arizona Preschool, we prioritize teaching emotional regulation as a foundation for lifelong success. Our unique approach incorporates three essential tools: breathing, gratitude, and affirmations. Students learn to control their emotions through deep breathing techniques, cultivating calm and focus. We foster a sense of gratitude by encouraging appreciation for the world around them, promoting happiness and positivity. Lastly, daily affirmations empower children with positive self-talk, helping them build confidence and a strong sense of self-worth. These practices create a nurturing environment where emotional growth thrives alongside academic learning.
Enhanced Classrooms
We believe the classroom environment should actively contribute to your child’s education. With that in mind, our spaces are continually refined to enhance learning—featuring natural materials, soft lighting, children’s work, music, family photos, plants, books, and even classroom pets, creating an alive and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere. This approach ensures a developmentally appropriate and cohesive experience for children, families, and teachers alike. We are proud to partner with Designing Environments for Growth and Inspiration (DEGI) in the interior design of our classrooms!
Our Bee-Havioral Plan
At Raising Arizona Preschool, our Bee-heavioral Plan is based on the five guiding “Bee’s”: Bee Loving, Bee Prepared, Bee Loyal, Bee Happy, and Bee Consistent. These principles set the standard for both our students and staff, ensuring that everyone is aligned in creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment. By embracing these behaviors, we foster a culture of respect and support, enabling us to provide the highest level of care and education for every child.
Communication is Key!
We believe open communication is key to creating the best possible environment for your child. Through the Procare app and our open-door policy, parents can easily connect with teachers or visit the classroom anytime. We value parent involvement and feedback to ensure we’re meeting the needs of children and families, fostering a space where kids feel supported, valued, and excited to learn. If concerns arise, we’re here to work together on solutions.
