First Mountain Preschool offers a literature-based learning curriculum in an environment that integrates Art, Science, Math & Music. This Language and Literature Curriculum creates project ideas developed through interactional, developmentally appropriate discussions and questions in an effort to get to know each child & discover their interests. This interactional teaching method is the basis of the Founder & Director Susan McCartney's graduate thesis research to offer emotional security and a mutual respect for the children as well as their parents.
