The Quest Approach to Jr. Kindergarten

As four- and five-year olds gain independence in leaps and bounds this year, our unique program latches on to that momentum and provides an environment to grow within that is both rich and multifaceted.

Academics are taught within thematic units, weaving together concepts in emergent math, literacy, science and social studies. Through imaginative play, the arts, and practical application, lessons are developed to engage kinesthetic learning strategies that invite and encourage creativity and open-ended thinking.

The Schedule

Following the foundational experience in the Quest Academy preschool program, the Junior Kindergarten experience celebrates and respects the joy and wonder that naturally abounds in this pivotal year of a child’s development.

As four- and five-year olds gain independence in leaps and bounds this year, our unique program latches on to that momentum and provides an environment to grow within that is both rich and multifaceted.  

Academics are taught within thematic units, weaving together concepts in emergent math, literacy, science and social studies. Through imaginative play, the arts, and practical application, lessons are developed to engage kinesthetic learning strategies that invite and encourage creativity and open-ended thinking.

As a bridge from Preschool to Kindergarten, the Quest Junior Kindergarten student enjoys a mix of structured and unstructured activities. Our day begins with routines and stimulating activities that provide fodder for imaginative play at the end of our day. Our teachers are flexible and adaptive, differentiating instruction for individual student need and growth.  

Junior Kindergarten students begin their journey to knighthood by focusing on Quest’s five foundation character traits: compassion, patience, responsibility, industry, and respect. These five words are woven into our daily goals and language. These character traits provide guidance for our young students learning to interact socially with the world around them. Foremost, our goals in Junior Kindergarten are to love learning and to adopt the qualities of a good learner: wonder, persistence and believing in oneself.
