Barrington
Academy strives to enrich the overall well being and development of
children while focusing on education. Today more and more research
confirms that children’s healthy development and success in school is
heavily influenced by their involvement in a quality childcare program
(Peisner-Feinberg 1999). Our children begin to learn and absorb at
a young age, it starts with colors and shapes and progresses to numbers and
alphabets. Our teachers prepare every child for school in a loving,
nurturing manner.
|
We provide a very safe, caring and
nurturing environment for our children. Our teachers delight in talking
to each child about his or her feelings and comfort them. They take
pride in taking care of our little ones and make it their business to
learn about their individual needs.

At Barrington
Academy we have facilitated the use of Pinnacle Curriculum. Pinnacle
Curriculum is formulated according to different age groups and allows the
educators to progress at each child’s individual pace. This curriculum
has the advantage of focusing on early childhood educational philosophy
that children learn best through hands-on activities which address the
needs of the child as a whole. In addition, we combine Pinnacle
curriculum with some Creative Curriculum to provide children with a
balance of Structure and Learning through planned activities each day.
Pinnacle Curriculum also reviews state and national standards for early childhood
education.
