Children at Davie Academy head outside twice a day to one of our three playgrounds, and each week they spend time in our S.T.E.M. room and our indoor sand room. We are a play-based preschool and daycare on North University Drive for children ages 1 to 5, open 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, with meals included. Four classes follow children as they grow: the Toddler Class (12 to 24 months), the Explorer Class for two-year-olds, Preschool Prep for three-year-olds, and the Graduate Class, our Florida VPK program for children who turn 4 by September 1. Classrooms are set up in learning centers for reading, math and manipulatives, science, dramatic play, blocks, and art and music. Our Creative Curriculum is paired with STEAM and project-based lessons, delivered in small groups and one on one. Twice a year we screen each child with the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, then sit down with parents to review results and plan next steps together. VPK students also take the state FAST early literacy assessments three times a year. Our character program teaches traits such as honesty and kindness.
