About Springboard Schools – Arlington

At Springboard Schools, we believe in the Reggio Emilia approach – an approach which emphasizes inquiry, expression, emergent curriculum, project-based learning, and child-led learning. Founded in 1987, we have four state-licensed locations in Massachusetts: Arlington, Chelmsford, Sudbury, and Westford. We understand the importance of connecting with the communities that surround our schools, and we tailor our curriculum to meet the socio-economic, cultural, and individual needs of each one. Each of our centers is staffed with experienced teachers and directors, and our classrooms are designed to inspire our children and foster their growth into lifelong learners. With our unique approach to early learning and our commitment to the communities we serve, Springboard Schools is the perfect place for your child to learn and grow.

Programs

The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.

Preschool Program

Preschool age is marked by rich curiosity, independence, and burgeoning social awareness. Preschoolers will learn to work within a community, ask inquisitive questions, and practice skills that will prepare them for Pre-Kindergarten. While fine motor skills continue to refine, cognitively the preschooler is ready to be introduced to basic educational concepts. Socially, preschoolers continue to practice communication, impulse control, self-expression and conflict resolution.

Infant Program

Infancy is a time when senses develop, gross motor skills awaken and fine motor skills begin to emerge. Infants will go from sleeping most of the day to rolling over and eventually sitting up. It’s a crucial social time where the infant will notice and mimic the actions of those around them as they learn self expression. It is also time of deep observation as the infant learns to navigate their environment.

Toddler Program

The main work of the toddler is to practice independence. Toddlers explore action and reaction as they strive for autonomy. They refine their motor skills as they work to walk and then run. Cognitively, they become more aware of patterns and order of operations. In social situations, they practice interaction, impulse control and begin to understand pretend play.
