About Us
OUR School
Appleseed Academy is a private Christian school, providing education to children from 18 months of age through 3rd grade. We also offer child care for our students before and after class times, as well as after-school transportation and child care for public elementary school students up to age 12.
our mission statement
It is our mission to create a safe, secure, and nurturing Christian environment in which each child can reach his or her full potential. Our educational programs have been created to promote the academic, social, physical, and spiritual development of the children in our care.
Our philosophy
We believe in the development of the whole child. Our highly trained and experienced teachers and staff work closely with parents to understand each child’s individual needs and abilities and to tailor a program that meets the unique needs of the child. The purpose of our approach is to foster competency in the young child.
We have several goals for children:
- to be competent and confident in their abilities;
- to be self-directed in a constructive, creative manner;
- to be successful in future educational experiences;
- to develop a love for learning and the ability to know how to learn;
- to develop self-control and a sense of right and wrong;
- to feel good about who they are;
- to learn cooperation with other children, as well as adults;
- to reach their full potential in all areas of development; and
- to learn and embrace Christian values and principles.
