Fall is for Family

Fall is for Family
By Parent Marketing Group|

The teachers, staff, children, and families that make up The Academy truly are a family. We do lots of things together as a family, but we want to encourage you to spend some quality time with just your family too. That’s why in October and November our emphasis is “Fall is for Family.”

Spending Time Together as a Family

Fall offers wonderful opportunities for family fun, making memories, and reaching out to other families in the community. All kinds of learning and child development take place spontaneously when you spend time together as a family:

  • developing motor skills
  • expanding the imagination
  • cooperating and maturing emotionally
  • making decisions

The cool, crisp Fall weather is perfect for outdoor activities. Consider visiting a pumpkin patch or picking apples at an orchard. Camping out (or in) can be fun especially when it includes roasting marshmallows.

When the weather is too chilly to be outside, you can have a movie night or game night with special food. You could also have a craft night to make homemade decorations for the holidays.

Reaching Out to Families in the Community

Fall is also a time when local charities need more volunteers and donations than other times of the year. Your family could help others by serving meals at a local soup kitchen or homeless shelter. You could also donate to a coat drive, your local food pantry, to your church outreach programs, or to one of The Academy programs for the needy.

Helpful Answers for Families Choosing The Academy

These FAQs share clear details on enrollment, daily routines, learning programs, safety, and what to expect once your child begins at The Academy.

What ages do you accept?

The Academy offers early learning programs designed for children from infancy through Pre-K. Each classroom is built around age-appropriate routines, developmental milestones, and learning goals that support growth at every stage. Children receive the structure they need to feel secure while still having the freedom to explore and learn through play, hands-on activities, and teacher-guided instruction.

We use the Frog Street curriculum to provide consistent learning across classrooms and age groups. This curriculum supports early literacy, communication, motor development, and social-emotional skills through structured themes and purposeful activities. Our teachers follow curriculum-based lesson plans while also adapting the day to each classroom’s pace, helping children stay engaged and supported as they make meaningful progress.

Yes. Enrichment programs are included in tuition and offered throughout the week. These sessions add variety and excitement to a child’s routine by introducing creative activities, movement, cultural exploration, and age-appropriate science experiences. Enrichment helps children build confidence, discover new interests, and stay motivated by adding new learning experiences beyond the core classroom schedule.

Strong parent communication is a key part of a successful childcare experience. Families receive updates through our communication system, which may include daily reports, photos, and important notes about meals, naps, or classroom moments. Our team aims to keep families informed, reduce surprises, and create consistent support between home and school throughout the year.

Safety is a top priority at every Academy location. Our centers follow structured protocols for drop-off and pickup, classroom supervision, and daily accountability. Staff are trained to maintain safe routines and consistent classroom expectations while supporting children in a calm environment. During a tour, families can learn more about entry procedures, classroom organization, and how we prioritize safety every day.

The easiest way to schedule a tour is by submitting the tour request form on our website. Once we receive your information, a team member will follow up to confirm availability, answer initial questions, and help you choose the best program for your child’s age. Tours are a great time to explore classrooms, learn about daily routines, and better understand the Academy experience.

Before your child starts, our team will share a simple list of items based on your child’s classroom and age group. Most families bring labeled supplies such as extra clothing, diapers or pull-ups if needed, wipes, and any approved comfort items. Teachers will also guide you through routines for drop-off, communication updates, and what to expect during your child’s first few days.
