Child Day Care Description

Parsons School, nestled in the corner of beautiful Babbage Park, serves 650 students from Kindergarten through Grade 5. Our students come from every continent, from scores of different countries, and from every ethnic and religious group. Our students are also diverse in their needs, abilities and interests. We believe we derive the strength of our educational program from this diversity. We have developed programs to help insure the success of all of our students.
Our curriculum is aligned to the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards. In math, we are implementing the Everyday Math Program, which, based on years of research, uses a hands-on experiential approach to help children understand mathematical concepts. Our language arts curriculum is a balanced one that addresses the processes of listening, speaking, reading, writing and viewing. An anthology with a rich selection of quality childrens literature is the hallmark of our reading program. Guided Reading is an important component of our early childhood literacy program. Writers Workshop is the foundation of our writing program.
We develop science literacy through an outcome-based curriculum, which provides a framework for standards-driven learning goals, and student centered instruction. In the social studies curriculum, younger children learn about their neighborhood and township. Our older children study New Jersey, the United States and other parts of the world. Students also learn the importance of being a loyal, patriotic citizen in a democratic society. Students attend a class in art and general music once a week. Physical Education is taught twice each week.
All of our subjects are supported by technology. We have a modern, state of the art computer lab and a full-time technology teacher. Networked computers are in every classroom. Students learn to use application programs, to use computer-assisted instruction, and to surf the net to find the resources they need.
