Shyne School

Hello, I am Katrina Brooke, Director of The Shyne School. We have been providing educational, play based learning programs for young children since 1983. At the Shyne School, we believe you must plan your curriculum around the whole child and that all areas of development (social / emotional, cognitive, creative, and physical) hold equal importance. Children love all the hands-on activities we provide. While parents appreciate the healthy home cooked meals and the flexibility, we offer three daily schedules and part or full week options for families.

I am immensely proud of my wonderful, dedicated teachers, they are the heart of our school. They work together as a team, so the children know all the teachers, not just their own. The teachers do a fantastic job of observing the children and providing activities that show an interest in and extending their play. The staff also collect documentation, fill out developmental screenings and track how students are doing in all areas of development so they can meet individual and group learning goals.  We use a parent engagement app by Procare that allows parents and teachers to communicate, and teachers send student photos.  We limit the time teachers spend on the app because we want them to be working with the children.  The children come first. Parents receive individual reports for their child and teachers meet with parents for conferences.  Parent communication is especially important to us, we email lesson plans weekly, so parents understand what their child is learning. 

** We are open Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM**
