Early Childhood Center

Our Early Childhood Center is a state accredited preschool program. The Center provides a wondrous environment where blind and visually impaired children learn and play together with sighted peers. Children, 6 months to 6 years of age, benefit from this reverse mainstream setting helping them to adapt to the sighted world, both socially and academically.

The educational environment stimulates children's natural desire to learn, stresses their independence and helps them reach their full potential. Preschoolers' social skills and knowledge blossom through a curriculum which includes: weekly field trips, orientation & mobility, music, computer skills, fine and gross motor skills, speech and language, pre-Braille and pre-academic activities. The vast majority of the Center's graduates have mastered the skills needed for successful mainstreaming into public school Kindergarten.
