Mission Statement

Sunshine Preschool’s mission is to provide a high-quality preschool program for young children prior to the age of Kindergarten eligibility as defined by the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care and the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Our teachers plan curriculum, intentionally teaching to achieve goals for children’s learning based on the Massachusetts Guided Learning Experiences for Young Children as well as Creative Curriculum's assessment model.



Philosophy and Goals

1.  The philosophy of the school is to provide a warm, safe, accepting environment where the child may grow as an individual. The school will foster the child’s total development in the areas of social, emotional, cognitive and physical growth through a multi-sensory approach to developmentally appropriate activities.

2.  The School’s primary goals are to help each child develop a positive self-image, to foster the development of self-confidence as an individual, to foster an awareness of others, and to encourage positive peer relationships.

3.  Sunshine Preschool’s developmental philosophy is to offer tasks at which children can succeed, as well as appropriate challenges, and an introduction to basic readiness concepts through play. These learning domains will include Social/Emotional Development (sense of self, responsibility for self & others), Physical Development (gross motor, fine motor), Cognitive Development (learning & problem solving, logical thinking, representation & symbolic thinking), and Language Development (listening & speaking, reading & writing).

4.  The School’s emphasis is to provide a quality program where children are exposed to and involved in a variety of preschool learning experiences. The emphasis is to provide the healthy growth and development of children.

5.  Sunshine Preschool emphasizes acceptance and respect of social and cultural diversity through our teaching methods, activities and play materials.
