Aloha!
We would like to take this opportunity to welcome your family to ours, and to thank you for your interest in enrolling your child at Early Achievers Preschool, Hawaii. We are aware that choosing a preschool can be a very difficult decision. For this reason, we strive to do all we can to help make this choice as easy as possible. Our goal is to provide the very best preschool experience for your family so that you may leave with the peace of mind knowing your child is receiving an unsurpassed education and care.
At Early Achievers, we provide a safe, healthy, and enriched environment in which children are exposed to rich language, pre-literacy and problem-solving skills with a balance of emotional and social skills critical at this age. Early Achievers focuses on a positive first school experience to engage and challenge students while preparing them for the next steps in their education and well-being. We understand the importance of establishing independent work habits and developing social skills early on. Our program is designed to provide a firm grounding in these areas, as well as providing opportunities for cognitive, emotional, and physical growth.
Children at Early Achievers engage in practical and meaningful learning experiences which introduce the foundational concepts of early learning. Early Achievers is a well-balanced program that encourages child-led inquiries and imagination. Students are given enough structure to learn and enough freedom to explore. Children will develop self-esteem as they participate in a setting that encourages and respects their independence and capabilities. We believe that these are the foundations for the personal success and academic achievement of our students for years to come.
