PRVO believes in the importance of providing each child with an educational opportunity that addressing their individual learning style. We apply a daily schedule of activities that is child-initiated/teacher- directed in our Head Start classrooms and child-initiated/teacher-supported in Early Head Start. We utilize the Creative Curriculum in our center-based classrooms and our Family Child Care Home. This curriculum is based on a firm foundation of research and serves as a guide in defining developmentally appropriate goals, objectives, and experiences for each child. Our teachers implement a lesson plan that is individualized to address the following areas of development: *Social/Emotional, *Physical, *Cognitive and *Language.
