What does little Red Schoolhouse, Inc. (LRSI) do to achieve a quality that stands out in the crowd for Breckenridge homeowners? Founded in 1987, Little Red Schoolhouse was designed to foster the growth and development of the whole child—physically, emotionally, intellectually, and socially. The highly structured setting includes a large amount of material designed to instill a lifetime love of learning. IRSI balances predictable routines with variety to achieve their philosophy, “Where Learning is Fun.”
Little Red Schoolhouse employs certified teachers as directors and administrators, uses a comprehensive curriculum developed by employees holding Masters’ degrees in Curriculum and Instruction, and employs staff who meet educational requirements. Age-appropriate activities and curriculum, the beautiful facilities and nurturing staff ensure well-rounded and self-assured children.
Then, too, parents are encouraged to complement the experiences that the children have in school. LRSI offers open communication in an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect. Formal children evaluations are performed in the fall and spring and informal observations are accomplished during the year. Parents are kept in the loop because they are made aware of what their children are learning and can follow their children’s progress in the comprehensive curriculum plan. They also communicate through ongoing dialogue with teachers and staff at drop-off and pick-up times. Newsletters highlight upcoming activities and events. There are parent communication boards. When children have specific needs, parents receive written communications and are always welcome to schedule parent/teacher conferences.
Within the air-conditioned facilities, complete with high-tech security monitoring systems, are also computers and a computer instructor. The yard is a living science Exploratorium that offers elements of a variety of studies. What are great way to learn about frogs, bugs and plant life! In addition, young architects love to build in the large sand grounds. But probably the most important observation that a new parent will make is that faces glow with an inner joy and sense of accomplishment—faces of children and the caregivers.
