Our Programs
The educational programs at QI SCHOOL were created with our children’s needs in mind: to mature and develop in a safe yet stimulating environment. Take a look below to learn more about each program.
Infant Program
6 weeks -15 months
We believe that your child is your most precious gift and as such, we vow to care and educate him or her using best practices at all times. We strive to individualize each child’s experiences and rely on your input to do so through the use of daily communication with our well-trained team. We believe in nurturing your child and developing his/her sense of autonomy in a safe and engaging environment.
Toddler Program
15 months - 2.9 years
We recognize and celebrate your child’s natural curiosities to explore and engage in the world around him or her. As your child becomes more independent, our Toddler Team offers many opportunities to practice skills and to learn new ones. We focus on developing the toddlers' social-emotional and language skills. We also introduce Mandarin as a second language.
Preschool Program
2.9 years - 3.9 years
During this period of development, we work on developing children's cognitive, motor, physical, and social-emotional skills. Preschool children continue learning Mandarin as a second language. They have many opportunities to engage in STEM learning, music and movement, dramatic play, and creative arts. Qi School individualizes each child's experience in our Preschool programs.
Pre-K Program
4 years - 5 years
Our goal is to prepare your child for Kindergarten and continued success throughout his or her educational journey. We promote learning through play by providing enriching experiences that build the foundations of leadership, multi-language skills, and reading, as well as all other physical, social, and cognitive domains. Daily enrichment opportunities including music and movement, sports skill-building, science, Mandarin, and more.
