| Pettit Private School's mission is to serve families by providing premier, preschool and school- age services. We create a safe, nurturing, stimulating and fun place for children to be loved and cared for during the day. We want to be an extension of your family! The school's professionally trained teachers understand a child's developmental process and align classroom activities to meet their kiddos' interests and needs. Learning experiences at Pettit Private School support a Constructivist Approach, where children construct new knowledge by "doing"; participating, hands-on, in a variety of theme-related activities. Working together as a team – child, teachers and parents – our purpose is to help children grow in all developmental areas: physical, social, emotional, cognitive and spiritual. Our goal is to help prepare them for life's experiences, including the entrance into grade school, and have the ability to thrive and achieve. Ultimately, we want to help you "lay the strong foundation upon which the rest of your child's life will be built!" (Matthew 7:24-25) |
