The whole child

What readiness looks like

Readiness is about more than letters and numbers. These are the six areas in the Star Tracker, and each one helps your child feel confident in a classroom.

Social & Emotional

Saying goodbye at drop-off, taking turns, and using words for big feelings.

Approaches to Learning

Staying with an activity, asking questions, and trying again when something is hard.

Physical & Self-Care

Using the bathroom, putting on a coat, holding a crayon, and cutting with scissors.

Language & Literacy

Speaking in full sentences, retelling stories, and writing their own name.

Mathematics

Counting, comparing, naming shapes, and noticing patterns in everyday play.

Science, Social Studies & Creative Arts

Exploring the world, wondering why, and sharing ideas through art, music and pretend play.

  • Spanish enrichmentAn early start on a second language through songs, words and stories.
  • Small classesConsistent teachers who notice what each child is ready for next.
