Philosophy

We believe...

  • That children are precious and must receive care from adults who are capable and caring—whose values enable them to be excellent role models.
  • That children should experience numerous positive learning milestones, leading to an increased sense of competence and independence.
  • Children’s play is extremely vital to healthy physical development, acceptable social skills, and cognitive growth.
  • That teachers, drawing upon their training and experience, must create an appropriate educational environment that carefully guides children from one developmental level to another.
  • That parents contribute to and enhance the quality of care offered at JCA.

Treehouse Educational Center ORL is a faith-based facility; however, we welcome those of diverse faiths, ethnic origins, and races.

While diversity may include different faiths, gender roles, socioeconomic status, and ethnicity, it is not limited to just these areas. We believe that diversity also includes the different physical, cognitive, and social abilities that one possesses. We strive to create a developmentally appropriate classroom environment that not only reflects each child’s unique abilities but also encompasses their home culture and experiences.

One of the most important things we can do to teach our children about diversity is through role modeling that all people are treated with kindness and respect.
