The Harrison Early Childhood Program is committed to providing a high-quality early childhood program in a nurturing and inclusive environment that supports the diverse needs of children and families in our community.

Our preschool program embraces cultural diversity, incorporating elements from the students' backgrounds and communities. This helps children feel seen and valued, fostering a positive sense of identity while exposing them to new ideas and traditions.

Play is central to our curriculum, as it enhances learning through natural exploration. Teachers differentiate instruction to meet the needs of each child, recognizing that language development might progress at different rates. This includes small group work, one-on-one support, visual aids, and gestures to reinforce understanding.
