Philosophy
At Off Broadway Preschool of Fine Arts in Boulder we value the uniqueness of childhood and each child. Therefore we strive to provide developmentally appropriate programming in a safe, clean, and creatively stimulating environment. Ample time is given for children to explore a diverse, yet balanced curriculum through self-directed play experiences within the context of a structured daily schedule. In addition to this, children and teachers also gather together several times each day for large and small group learning enrichment times. Though our school provides access to all areas of curriculum, our focus is in the creative arts- music, visual art, and movement.
We welcome all children and families. We cultivate community with honest, compassionate, and open communication with each other, children, and families. We strive to wholly embody a non-biased attitude in celebration of our similarities as well as our differences in developmental state, culture, belief, family structure, and gender. This is reflected in our approach to working with each child, family, colleague, and the wider community.
Integral to the well-being and success of every child is family involvement and highly qualified teachers. We honor that the child’s first teacher is the family unit and view our relationship with families as a partnership in education. Similarly, our teachers are professionally equipped in their knowledge of child development and education, and in their teaching intuition and practice.
