The mission of Meeting House Preschool is to:
- Provide students with an educationally sound program in an atmosphere of warmth, friendliness, and freedom
- Offer opportunities for exploration, experimentation, and inquiry
- Encourage curiosity and expression of ideas
- Accept each child as an individual, helping the child grow in accordance with his/her own needs
To accomplish our mission, MHP offers developmentally-appropriate educational programs that focus on the “whole child” in terms of his/her:
- Social development: how the child interacts with other children and adults as well as their environment
- Emotional development: how the child feels about him/herself and the ways the child accepts and expresses personal feelings and ideas
- Cognitive development: the thinking skills that are needed to catalog new information, formulate ideas and solve problems
- Physical development: the awareness and control of the physical body that the child acquires through the five senses, rest, exercise, and nutrition
Growth in these four areas occurs simultaneously; together they form the foundation for lifelong human development. It is our honor, privilege and expertise at MHP to nurture children along this exciting journey.
