Today’s Learning Center seeks to motivate and foster the development of the whole child by providing a wide array of learning opportunities.  In addition to an ambitious and innovative academic program, Today’s Learning Center offers numerous enrichment classes including music, art, physical education, world language, and computer technology.

Music is an integral part of the curriculum at Today’s Learning Center.  Preschoolers begin by singing a variety of songs that encourage language development and a love of music.  Elementary students learn about rhythm, tempo, melody, musical notation, and learn how to play the recorder and the violin.  Middle school students study music appreciation and learn about composers.  They also have the opportunity to record their own music and are taught basic recording techniques using the latest computer software and digital technology.
The entire student body performs in three musical productions throughout the school year.  The music department also offers students the opportunity to join the school Concert Choir.  This group of children performs in all school productions as well as in the community.  Our Concert Choir has performed at The Hermitage, at a local Veteran’s home, and has even auditioned on Broadway!

Computer technology is a vital part of our overall program.  Today’s Learning Center seeks to provide a state of the art education for all of its students.  Classroom teachers and computer specialists work together to integrate the use of computers into the regular classroom setting and maximize technological opportunities for learning.  Each student beginning in the upper elementary grades has the use of a personal computer or laptop in the classroom.

The art program at Today’s Learning Center allows students to express themselves through a variety of media.  Preschoolers work towards improving fine motor skills and learn about color, shape, and texture.  Elementary students gain awareness of depth, shadow, and perspective through drawing and painting.  They experiment with color and enjoy making prints, collages, sculptures, and working with clay.  Middle school students gain an appreciation of art by studying art history.

The physical education program seeks to improve motor skills, encourage physical fitness, build self esteem, and foster teamwork and sportsmanship.  Younger students learn group cooperation and improve motor skills through obstacle course, relay races, and games.  Elementary students develop the pre-requisite skills for various sports and work towards improving levels of physical fitness.  Middle school students enjoy competing in sports such as basketball, floor hockey, flag football, and baseball.  Our students also take part in the Presidential Fitness Test, a nationwide program that encourages and celebrates physical fitness.   

The World Language program begins in preschool and concentrates on acquisition of the Spanish language and on exploration of the Spanish culture.  Students build vocabulary and conversation skills and are introduced to Spanish music, holidays, foods, and customs.
