In our two year old classes, children develop autonomy by practicing self-help/life skills, develop a deeper sense of self by exploring personal interests, become more confident through interactions with peers and teachers, and learn about what it means to be a member of a group. As teachers, we facilitate this learning to take place by planning with intention. We select activities that address our unique group of students’ needs and strengths. At Duke Memorial Weekday School, we believe there is a difference between providing responsive care and actively engaging and teaching children.
Operating Hours: Monday – Friday, 9:00 am – Noon with the option to stay until 12:50 pm with lunch bunch.
