Kindergarten at Grow With Us Learning Academy
Starting kindergarten is a big step for both children and their families. At Grow With Us Learning Academy in Crestview, our kindergarten program is designed to make that first step into school feel exciting, welcoming, and full of support. We believe the early years shape a child’s love for learning, and we are here to guide them every step of the way with encouragement, structure, and heart.
Why Families Choose Our Kindergarten in Crestview
Families in Crestview choose Grow With Us because they want more than just a school. They want a place where their child is supported, celebrated, and encouraged to be their best self. Our classrooms are built around hands-on learning, social development, and emotional growth. We teach with intention, care, and a real understanding of what young children need to succeed.
Our curriculum follows Florida’s B.E.S.T. Standards and covers reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. We also introduce Latin in a fun, story-based way to help kids build vocabulary, understand language structure, and boost their problem-solving skills. It is just one of the ways we help children gain confidence in communication and critical thinking.
A Day in Our Crestview Kindergarten Classrooms
Every day in our Crestview kindergarten classrooms is thoughtfully planned to create a balance of structure, creativity, and fun. Here is a look at what your child’s day might include:
- Morning meeting and the pledge
- Core subjects like reading, math, science, social studies, and Latin
- Creative activities, art, and enrichment
- Lunch and recess for fresh air and social time
- No nap time, just full days of learning through play and exploration
Each classroom has both a lead teacher and a teaching assistant, so your child gets the personal attention they need. All of our teachers receive specialized training in early childhood education and use proven teaching strategies to help every child thrive.
We also focus on emotional development. Kids learn how to express their feelings, resolve conflicts, and show kindness. Our approach to behavior is built on positive guidance, helping children make good choices and feel proud of themselves.
We keep our uniform policy simple and comfortable. Students wear white or light blue polos, khaki bottoms, and closed-toe shoes to keep things easy and distraction-free.
