Infants: 6 weeks to 10 months old. 

Our infant room is a loving and welcoming environment.  Teachers often sing with the babies and provide sensory activities and crafts. They work with infants to accomplish essential milestones including fine motor, gross motor, social and emotional development.

Beginners: 10 to 18 months old. 

Babies in our Beginner classroom are starting to communicate and interact with others using gestures and simple words. Our teachers provide affection and attention to our babies and expose them to new words and concepts like shapes and colors.

This is the first classroom where children are learning a daily routine and transitions, like meal times and outdoor play.

Georgia Pre-K :

​

Here at Discovery Point Suwanee we get the young Pre -Kindergartners ready for school. We believe school readiness must be defined within the context of the nature of four year olds and how they learn. We believe it must be defined within the context of families and how they live. School readiness must be defined within the context of communities and the services they provide. 

​

Take a look at some of the exciting things that we have in store for young learners in the Suwanee area:

​

A child's readiness for school is when...

​​

  • enthusiasm, curiosity, and persistence toward learning is demonstrated,

  • feelings of both self and others are recognized,

  • social and interpersonal skills are emerging,

  • communication with others is effective,

  • early literacy skills are evident, and

  • a general knowledge about the world, things, places, events, and people has been acquired.

After School Program

​

Our Pre-K and school-aged children are placed in classrooms according to grade levels. Teachers work with these students on social skills to help them work together and solve problems. This is a structured and fun time as they complete homework, are engaged in activities, and play in a relaxing environment after school.  Scholars also participate in enrichment classes such as Kids Tech Learning, Story Time Chess, Cursive Writing Course, and Spanish.
