Educational philosophy and administration

Building Dreams Preschool follows the HighScope Curriculum, a research-based method focusing on active play and engaging in hands-on experiences. The program is designed to hone-in on a child’s strengths and let her learn at her own pace. The school celebrates each child’s creativity and unique vision. Teachers encourage their students to be independent thinkers. Building Dreams offers a variety of programs including Spanish classes, as well as arts and crafts. The children also participate in community service projects. Teachers encourage parents to continue the learning process at home by offering caregiver and parent workshops on different themes such as “Understanding Childhood Development” and “Dramatic Play and Language.” Director Yelixy Garcia leads Building Dreams Preschool and strives to create an atmosphere where children can learn, create and dream with the help of diligent and kind educators. Parents feel the warmth, with one writing, “Excellent day care... the staff are perfect, very clean. I love it. The director is a very good person. I recommend 100%.”
