The Tucker-Maxon Preschool

Tucker-Maxon's preschool follows the widely-used Creative Curriculum, an age-appropriate, child-directed educational program in which children learn through play and stimulating hands-on activities. Classrooms, daily schedules, activities, materials and discipline strategies all reflect an in-depth knowledge of child development. For pre-reading instruction, in the pre-kindergarten, we use HAPPILY EVERY AFTER by the Rowland Reading Foundation.

Parents who choose Tucker-Maxon's preschool program for their children are preparing their children for kindergarten and laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning and citizenship. These parents are that their children will be learning alongside children who are deaf or hard of hearing and they want their children to lean to value differences in others.
