Our Philosophy and Curriculum

Developing Minds Academy Preschool

Our Early Education Philosophy for Curriculum

We know that the quality of your child's education starts with our curriculum at Developing Minds Academy Preschool. That's why our philosophy is centered on play. With a play-based learning model, we'll work with your child's natural interests and enthusiasm, harnessing the inherent curiosity all children possess. Then, we use student assessments to customize the curriculum, providing each child with engaging, individualized support.


Our learning model adheres to the Arizona Early Learning Standards, and we incorporate wellness activities like meditation and yoga into the daily routine. Learn more about our philosophy and curriculum below.
