At Nova Scholars Learning Center, we use The Creative Curriculum® to provide children with a research-based, developmentally appropriate learning experience that supports the growth of the whole child.

Our curriculum encourages children to learn through exploration, hands-on experiences, play, and meaningful interactions with teachers and peers. Through intentional teaching, children develop skills in language and literacy, mathematics, discovery, social-emotional development, physical development, and creativity.

Our teachers observe each child’s interests, strengths, and individual needs to create engaging learning opportunities that inspire curiosity, build confidence, and foster a lifelong love of learning.
