Programs Offered

     At Ridge Kids Academy, Inc. we use The Creative Curriculum  The Creative Curriculum is a teacher-directed method with developmentally appropriate goals and objectives for our students. There are four main categories of interest; social/emotional, physical, cognitive, and language. The Creative Curriculum assists well-trained teachers in creating an environment for children that promotes active learning through play while encouraging children's language, cognitive learning, curiosity, persistence, creativity, problem-solving, and promotes independence. Teachers and children are active partners in the educational experience. Teachers work in partnership with parents and other family members to nurture children's education. Our educators provide information about the curriculum, discuss progress, and share ideas for extending classroom learning in the home.

School Age

Ages 5-12

We welcome children ages 5 - 12 years old during summer, before and after school. Through the before and after school program your child has the opportunity to expand their learning while being social with their peers. RKA covers morning care, until the bus takes your child to school, and afternoons from the end of school until 6pm.   Summers are full of sensational  activities and experiences  they wont forget. In any given week, children in our programs might be exploring science, STEAM activities, art projects, group games, and even creating magic in our theater area. At RKA there is no time to be bored and friendship and laughter are guaranteed. Parents are kept informed of the daily activities and fieldtrips through our summer calendars on the ProCare app and in the calendars section of the website.
