School
Charles Towne Child Development Center is founded on the philosophy that children, their families, and society benefit from high quality early childhood programs. Research shows that there is a critical link between a child’s early experiences and later success in life. The program for Charles Towne CDC is based on the belief that children need time to be children and experience their childhoods. Teaching is the art of providing young children with an environment that encourages active exploration and discovery. Projects are planned, yet responsive to individual needs and environmental happenings. Opportunities are provided for the children to take responsibility, make decisions, and learn through play in mixed age groupings.
