Our Mission
We believe...
Every child deserves to learn in a nurturing, creative environment. We believe in providing structure, flexibility and hands-on learning experiences, so each student has the opportunity to develop their own sense of self in their own way.
We believe in the power of music. The power of play and exercise. The power of books and numbers. Because these are the things that encourage kids to love learning.
It is our mission to make sure every student that leaves KIP is emotionally and academically ready to enter elementary school.
But above all else, we believe your kid is completely awesome in his or her own way.
