Our preschoolers participate in weekly extracurricular activities. Our teachers teach and incorporate these classes into their daily activities and curriculum.
Be sure to watch your child’s Brightwheel account for all monthly activities. All children must have signed permission slips to participate in off-campus activities.
As always, at Active Imaginations Child Development Center in Louisville, Kentucky, assessments are done twice a year and reviewed with parents if needed.
