Our Program Philosophy
The first years of a child’s life set the foundation for and influence future success in school and life. The Cloverleaf Preschool Program adheres to Ohio Administrative Code Chapter , Rules of Preschool Programs, and provides a comprehensive preschool education with a variety of experiences and materials to enhance physical, social, emotional, and cognitive growth. Children’s learning occurs in a widely diverse and interactive way. An activity that stimulates one area of development effects others as well. It is important to provide a proper introduction to classroom learning so that all children feel confident about themselves and their ability to succeed. It is important to have a balance between free choice and structured activities to foster responsibility, self discipline, and confidence. Through continuous observation of each student, the teacher recognizes individual interests and can help each child pursue his/her personal goals and satisfy his/her own needs.

We can have up to 8 identified children and 4 typically developing children in our classrooms. Children with identified developmental delays will fall into one of the following categories
Speech/Language
Vision
Motor function
If you feel your child has delays in one or more of these areas, please contact us.
We will meet with you to determine if we think a disability is suspected.
If needed, in-depth testing will occur with specialized individuals.
A team approach is used to gather information on the child.
The results of all testing is gone over with the parent/legal guardian.
The team, including parents, determines if the child has documented deficits in one or more areas to qualify based on state criteria.
