The Friendship Academy is an amazing program where all children play to learn. This unique program provides an excellent early childhood education program with a research-driven and enriched curriculum in a child-friendly and safety-oriented setting.
The Friendship Academy is an inclusive program, which means that children with disabilities learn side-by-side with their typically developing peers. The benefit to the children with disabilities is the opportunity to model their peers. The benefits to the typically developing children are many. Some of the program features include; “Handwriting Without Tears”, an eco-science experience with a greenhouse/garden, music instructor, arts and crafts, iPad technology and a library and book loan program.
We have created a video that gives you first-hand look at how the program is impacting families.
