Activities and Programming

Our curriculum is built on a variety of exciting activities. The kids explore our community and our world through a range of different windows, including art, science, crafts, technology, literacy, sports and physical activity, music, drama, cooking, math, community service, games, cultural events, and outdoor activities. Homework is a daily focus at MFNH, and all children are encouraged to work toward completing school assignments with personalized assistance from our staff. Children who do not have formal assignments for home completion are challenged to deepen and reinforce their skills in fun ways.

Staff

Our staff is comprised of experienced, reliable creative and caring individuals. Several of our teachers and assistants are pursuing degrees in education in addition to training received during ongoing staff development. The entire staff is dedicated to the safety and well being of our children, and to helping every child have fun. Program structure and activities offer an opportunity for children to grow socially, emotionally and physically with the support and encouragement of our staff.
