Educational Approach

Merit School’s educational approach is to provide a variety of options for learning, not only based on the age of the child, but also his or her learning style, maturity and developmental stage.  To achieve this we:

  • Provide a warm, nurturing environment in which each child is recognized and supported by loving, caring staff.
  • Provide a challenging and individualized curriculum that encourages the child’s creativity and love of learning.
  • Provide a variety of experiences, including field trips, computers, foreign language and special programs.
  • Provide an open door policy in order to include our families in the educational process.
  • Establish a safe and supportive learning environment, which accepts and respects diversity.
  • Promote character building, problem solving skills, manners and social competency.
  • Foster each child’s feelings of self-esteem and self-worth.
