Learning With a Purpose
Our Curriculum
At Shining Stars Academy, we use the Frog Street curriculum to provide engaging, age-appropriate learning experiences from infancy through preschool. Frog Street is designed around the whole child, helping children build strong foundations in language, early literacy, math, science, social-emotional skills, physical development, and creativity.
Through hands-on activities, music, movement, stories, sensory experiences, and purposeful play, children are encouraged to explore, ask questions, build confidence, and develop a love of learning. Lessons are thoughtfully designed to meet children where they are developmentally while preparing them for their next stage of learning.
Our teachers combine the Frog Street curriculum with meaningful everyday experiences, creating a classroom environment where children can learn, grow, play, and shine!
