Three year olds are constantly observing and investigating all that comes within their reach. They spend their time trying to figure out how things work, how things grow and what people do....
Visitation Academy's program is designed to promote social, intellectual, and physical development. But most of all, we prepare the children for their future educational path with a faith based curriculum.
Children must be 3 by October 1st. We offer a transitional program for children who turn 3 after October 1st. These students must repeat the 3 year old program the following school year. All children MUST be able to use the bathroom on their own.
Our curriculum includes Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, Religion, iPad Work, Personal and Social Development, and is in line with the NJ Department of Education.
