Mission: The king's daughters day school commits its resources and talents to innovative, quality approaches to child care, education and related family support. The mission of the king's daughters day school is to provide children of working parents with developmentally appropriate educational programs in a nurturing environment in order to build a foundation for becoming responsible, productive members of society.
Programs: Day school - our day school services are provided monday to friday from 6:30 am to 5:30pm for 50 weeks during the year. Our mobile infants, toddlers and preschool children range in age from 12 months to 5 years. In addition to learning activities, we provide our mobile infant and toddlers and preschool age children with nutritious meals, health monitoring, sick child care, and family support. Learning activities in our infant/toddler and preschool program provide children with an opportunity to explore creative materials, express ideas and stimulate curiosity. The individual child's experiences, along with the teaching staff's understanding of child development and the high scope educational approach, prepare a typically developing child to enter school ahead of their peers.
after school - our after-school services are provided monday to friday part time, 2:30pm to 5:30pm during the school year and part day or full day when public schools are closed for holidays. Our school age children range in age from 5 to 12 years. Our after-school curriculum is influenced by what the children bring to the day school. Completing homework is a key element of the program, and is balanced with social time, physical activity, crafts, and play activities to stimulate intellectual curiosity in literacy, math, science, logic, music, drama and art, not necessarily in that order. The children's preferences and experiences guide the thematic content of the program.

Parent can utilize the program as needed in any combination of time from the full ten weeks or just a week or two at a time.
