Why Choose Mohawk Country Home School?
Most importantly, because of our incredible, qualified staff!...
Our teachers have been with us, on average, more than 15 years!
Then, because of our remarkable facility...
We are located on the spacious Camp Mohawk forty-acre site complete with:
- 3 playgrounds
- A bicycle center
- A mini-golf course
- Apple orchards for apple-picking
- A grape arbor for picking grapes
- Maple trees for tapping and making syrup
- A farm complete with a llama, goats, ducks, geese, lambs, a donkey, ponies, peacocks and more!
Or, because of our comfortable, well equipped classrooms:
Our children are grouped by age and developmental level in several home-like buildings surrounding our Main Office.
Each classroom is filled with blocks, books, toys, manipulatives, dress-ups, legos, puzzles, learning centers and educational materials appropriate to the age.
Next, because of our enriched curriculum:
Our program is carefully balanced between child-centered and teacher directed activities.
Our days have a comfortable structure with ample play time both indoors and outdoors (weather permitting), daily projects and story times, circle time, and carefully planned readiness activities introducing children to basic science, language and math concepts.
A DAILY music program in our music rooms includes sing-alongs, holiday festivities, beginning instruments and an amazing, fun-filled introduction to classical composers.
A physical education program is taught in our heated gym or outdoor fields.
An 'Introduction to Computers' class for our 4 and 5 year olds is held in our very own Computer Lab.
And, various age and developmentally appropriate Kindergarten and First Grade classes.
Our classes designed for Kindergarten and First Grade age children, accommodate each child's learning pace and style.
- Our 'cushion year' Kindergarten class is for those who are eligible for Kindergarten but who would benefit from an additional preschool year in an age/developmentally-appropriate setting.
- Our 'Young Kindergarten' class is for children whose families need time to determine whether to advance them to First Grade or spend a second Kindergarten year.
- Our traditional and very enriched Kindergarten and First Grade class offers advanced opportunities for children who qualify.
