Preschool
In preschool, teaching effectively is arguably more important than at any other time in a child’s education because it is when the child’s educational foundation is established. A key to success is its ability to blend fun and learning in early education—when children are curious, eager to learn, and when their minds are developing rapidly. Contact the school for more information on the strategies and curriculum we use at CornerStone Academy Preschool. We have several program options and also offer extended class time for our preschoolers to help the working parent.

Our educators are specially trained in child develpment methods, including how to nurture and support your child's development to achieve these goals.
Educational Programs
We are responding to the current educational crisis by offering a new educational option offering small group, face-to-face instruction: Cornerstone Academy Microschool.
This fall we are launching a microschool, a small tribe of multi-age children K-6th grades who learn, explore, and grow together. Microschools have grown in popularity across America in the last decade. Most microschools are founded by parents and educators who have identified an educational gap for their own children and other children in their community and decide to form a school that fills that need. Microschools typically serve 8-50 multi-age kids but some larger established schools educate up to 150 children.

Progressive
A child who struggles in one area has gifting in other academic areas. Those gifts will be highlighted and strengthened. We use a special mindprint cognitive assessment for each child 8+ which is given during our admissions process by a licensed educator.
In addition to the mindprint cognitive assessment the teacher will assess each child at the beginning of the year and determine each child's skill levels. Instruction will be planned that meets your child at their current skills and progresses them throughout the year to be ready for the next school year.
