The Cove School: Welcoming a new West Seattle Blog sponsor

Today we welcome WSB’s newest sponsor, The Cove School. Here’s what they want you to know:

Living an interesting, fun-filled, opportunity-stuffed life. Friendly + flexible. Curious + engaged. Following a path that makes them thrilled-to-the-tips-of-their-toes happy. Don’t we all want that life for our kids?

Well, we here at The Cove School sure want that for our kids – both now and when they’re adults. Can a preschool do all that? Ignite a life of mindfulness, creativity, and self-determined passion? We think so. Here’s why – and how – we do it:

We believe every child has a unique contribution to make to the world – and finding that contribution leads to a joyful + successful + complete life. We fill your kids with the desire to do something and the belief that they can. So we set about creating a place that would help our little ones do just that.

To do that, The Cove School combines a variety of philosophies and educational approaches. We focus on social + emotional learning and the mindfulness at our core. Of course (of course!) our students learn numbers, letters, reading, and math. But more importantly, they learn that positive thought and mindfulness is a way of being – not a solution to a problem.

Our preschool ranges from ages 2-6; preschool, pre-K, and junior kindergarten. We show our students the importance of purpose and intent, innovation and creativity. Together, we build a foundation of flexible thinking and understanding different perspectives.

We work with you and your child to instill a love of learning and a knowledge that life is what you make it. In fact, we discourage use of the word can’t at our school. Instead, we say “How can I?” That opens a world of possibilities.

Help your child live a totally fulfilled life. Pop in for a visit or drop us a line to arrange a tour – contact information is at www.thecoveschool.com. We can’t wait to meet you!

We thank The Cove School for sponsoring independent, community-collaborative neighborhood news via WSB; find our current sponsor team listed in directory format here, and find info on joining the team by going here.

    How is Junior Kindergarten different than Pre-K?

    Hi Just Curious
    Junior Kindergarten is for those children who will turn 5 by December 31st. Typically those enrolled in Jr. K. miss the August 31st cutoff or would benefit another year after Pre-K before transition to Kindergarten. Many summer birthday’s do a year of Junior K. A little more popular on the east coast probably.

Sorry, comment time is over.
