Our Programs
Baby Nidos (3 months -12 months)
Our educators know the importance of creating a trust filled relationship with our infants. As our educators soothe and nurture children they support them in building a sense of confidence by responding quickly and appropriately to their natural cues. Our educators comfort your baby while holding, talking, singing in a quiet reassuring voice, and by making eye contact with them. We encourage our educators to think of and research opportunities they can offer very young children, which will provoke their thinking. Because babies learn with all their senses, our educators expose them to multiple sensorial experiences with materials such as paint, clay, sand, light and shadows, and much more.
Nido (12-24 months)
As your child begins to walk, run, and jump, our educators observe and analyze their interactions with the environment, materials, and each other. Our teachers use these observations, to recognize your child’s interests and create projections based on your child’s curiosity and their teachers’ intentions. With many toddlers possessing at least 50 words by this age, educators observe your child develop their expressive language skills and witness an increase in their ability to remember events. Empathy, pretend play, and social roles are explored as teachers support your children as they navigate their first relationships and begin to create their own identity.
Two’s
As your child grows in a safe and comfortable environment they are more open to take risks and be more autonomous. Independence becomes an evident milestone for two year olds. As they discover all the things they can do they want to do more things for themselves such as eating, washing hands, dressing themselves, and learning to use the toilet. Through various sensorial, fine motor, and gross motor experiences, teachers encourage children to become self-sufficient.
Three’s
As your child turns three, their verbal language becomes a powerful tool they use to express themselves. As their identity and independence develops, they begin to question everything around them and are constantly asking, “why?”. As they develop a better sense of time, children of the two’s separate from parents with greater ease. Since they begin to better understand a daily flow and others’ routines, they are more comfortable accepting transitions and soothe themselves with their ability to make predictions about what is coming next.
Four’s
Children of the four’s are interested in finding out how everything works. At this stage your child will develop greater self-control, independence, and enjoy trying new experiences. Since their vocabulary and pronunciation increases, they begin communicating in more complex and compound sentences. Four-year-olds frequently initiate conversations and are less likely to change the subject of conversation to only the areas of personal interest since they are more interested in collaborating and sharing. Because they feel confident to express themselves verbally, they frequently exchange ideas and suggestions. Our teachers invite the children to participate in creating projections and in revisiting their experiences through photographs, discussions, videos, or voice recordings. Children of the four’s are also encouraged to get involved during the documentation process and their perspectives are written down and become part of these records.
Kindergarten
Language Arts
In our school, we constantly look for different ways to connect oral and written language in ways that are meaningful to the children. We want to foster a love for literacy that will remain in them for years to come, and to support their understanding of its purpose in their daily lives.
Reading
Early in the year, kindergarteners typically develop and strengthen their knowledge of letters. They name them, recognize and write them in both upper and lowercase. By the end of the year, most children will be able to read CVC words and frequently used words (sight words) and the names of their classmates, as well as simple sentences. Stories are often read during our Kindergarten’s daily flow. A rich collection of children’s literature with big, illustrated books, songs, and poems are used to support students in recognizing words that occur frequently.

Enrichment Programs
Physical Education
A sport specialist teaches students important concepts of body awareness, self-confidence, language and gross motor skills in our plaza or in our playground.
Atelier
The word Atelier means art studio or workshop in French. It is a welcoming and inspiring place where a wide variety of natural and man made materials are visually available to explore. Here, children of all ages come individually or in small groups to encounter experiences with different media that will progressively support all their languages of expression. The early exploration of the visual arts through materials such as clay, paper, fabric, wire, light, beads, shells, leaves and wood, among others, offer children endless possibilities.
Music Our weekly music sessions, included in our tuition, expose children to fundamentals of rhythm, musicality, and self-expression.

Before/After School
As a family-oriented program, we know the need for childcare before and after school hours. We provide early drop off where children are invited to come to school before the regular day begins to make your lives more manageable. This offer is also available after school, in addition to our location-specific classes like ballet, karate, zumba and soccer.
Summer Camp
While summer time is a chance for children to relax, KLA Schools strives to maintain our standard of excellence through meaningful adventures and inspiring surroundings. Each year our programs change to represent the interests of our children. Experiences include weekly Splash Days, cooking classes, continued use of the Atelier as well as a variety of field trips within our communities.
