Mill Creek Parish Preschool

Mill Creek Parish Preschool has designed a curriculum that correlates to the objectives of the expectations of both the Maryland State Department of Education and the Montgomery County Public Schools.  The objectives focus on all areas of child development:  social and emotional development, language and literacy, mathematical thinking, social studies, scientific thinking, the arts and physical development and health.  Class activities are developmentally appropriate and are designed to introduce and reinforce skills and instill confidence.
 
MCPP uses the Work Sampling System as a guideline to assess student development.  This tool is recommended by the Department of Education’s “Maryland Model for School Readiness” program.

Activities selected are those which reinforce strengths and address areas needing reinforcement.  Each child is free to work at his or her own level and pace.  The small class size ensures that everyone will receive the individual attention necessary to develop an interest and joy in learning, a sense of self-worth and self-direction; key ingredients for successful academic achievement in the future.
