Aims of the School
The staff aims to provide a creative, happy and safe environment where preschoolers will have the opportunity to interact with peers and adults within the framework of a supervised group. They offer situations where children will become adept at following directions, expressing themselves, accepting responsibility and developing leadership. Children are also helped to develop good manners when they talk, play and eat.

A better education has become imperative in these times. Teaches, educators, psychologists, and sociologists emphasize the essential role of an earlier education in a world in which changes are taking place at an ever increasing rate.

Most specialists in the field of education admit that an earlier education, a pre-school education, enables children to develop the basic patterns of their future personalities and careers. They admit also that beginning with the first day of life, up to the age of five, children can learn new things easier and faster than in any period of life.

The teachers of "Le Chaperon Rouge" agree totally with these experts, and try very hard to provide within the day care program a real "school" environment that prepares the children for elementary education. A day care center does not have the right to waste a child's time or mind. Children do need to play, but at the same time they need to learn and prepare for school.

When a child who has attended a pre-school is compared to one who has not, striking differences in skills development become readily apparent, even if both had the same intellectual potential. The child attending the day care would be more prepared for reading, better able to color and write, able to listen due to a longer attention span, and most importantly, would be the more cheerful and well adjusted of the two children.

Testimonials

Our daughter Arianna has been at Le Chaperon Rouge in Hudson for the past five months. Our daughter came into the class just as she was turning five years old. She came into the class not recognizing any of her letters or numbers, or knowing any letter sounds. She also did not look forward to going to "school" in the morning. She was just not enjoying her day.

It has been five months. Arianna has learned a tremendous amount in these past five months; mainly to the efforts of Miss Kathy. Arianna recognizes all her numbers and letters, along with knowing her letter sounds. She is able to sound out three letter words and read from her "Bob" books. Arianna is able to count and add small numbers together. The best comment I can make about her progress is that she is learning a significant amount each day. We were reviewing some of her work one evening and she turned, smiled and said, "Mommy, I am learning a lot!" She was quite proud of herself and her work. She has finally been challenged enough in the classroom, that school has become interesting and fun, while she is simultaneously learning. She brings home all of her class work, art work and crafts. I ask her questions about all of the different topics -- from animals to math -- and she consistently remembers the lessons she has learned. The fact that she remembers, tells me she is interested in the topic, and the topic is presented in a way that makes it interesting to a five year old who is now interested in going to "school" each day.

Our impression is that your school's philosophy is to integrate current, leading edge teaching methodologies with those successfull skills in the past. This philosophy, along with her hard work and conscientious, caring attitude, has produced results with Arianna that have exceeded our expectations.

Thank you Le Chaperon Rouge.

Best Regards,
Arianna's parents,

Mrs. Moga,

I wanted to express my satisfaction with the Hudson Le Chaperon Rouge.  The rate at which my girls have increased their knowledge of the basics (counting, recognition of letters, numbers, shapes, colors, etc.) has accelerated well beyond my expectations.

The number of extra activities offered at your school is tremendous.  It gives the parents an easy way to engage their children in different physical and mental activities that are usually difficult to fit into their lives.  Offering 2 foreign languages at this young age will benefit them beyond their current understanding.  The computer, gym and dance classes are an easy way for the kids to explore different activities at their own pace.

It is amazing how much they enjoy attending your school.  They rarely cry when we drop them off and they are always smiling when I pick them up.  My 2 year old includes all 3 of her teachers in the list of people that love her.  This speaks volumes to the types of teachers you have in your school.  They are making bonds with the children that, in my opinion, are vital for my children to grow into loving, caring adults.

Your Director is doing a great job running the school.  She is attentive to my comments and suggestions and she is very engaged and expedient in resolving issues.  Her approach with parents and the children is also commendable.  She knows everyone and my girls love her as much as the teachers they spend most of their time with.  She is taking the time to get to know the children and this makes me feel even more confident about the care they are receiving.

Overall, my husband and I are overjoyed we made the decision to move to your school when it was built in Hudson.  I don't even consider this day care.  You do so much more than watch over our children.  The amount of learning activities and fun activities that are offered are helping to shape my girls into children that love to learn and also love to explore different activities.

I really can't thank you enough for giving Hudson a superior school to prepare our young children for elementary school and beyond.

Best Regards,

Christine Comune - Hudson, Ohio
