The children develop close relationships with their teachers, who carefully follow the growth of each individual and how they process, feel and assimilate learning of all kinds. The teachers at The B.E.N. consider themselves to be leaders, and value the opportunity to offer each child the safety of being him or herself.

The teachers encourage a close working relationship with the child’s family, so as to better support the child as they make their way through this foundational time of life. The social and emotional growth that is encouraged in each child individually during these years is based in value and respect for oneself, for others and for the environment in which we live and learn.
