At Pathways, we believe all children have natural curiosity, potential, interests, and the ability to construct their own learning through exploring with everything the environment provides them. Pathways focuses on each child in relation with the family, other children, the teachers, the environment of the school, the community, and with the wider society.
The Reggio Emilia approach is a teaching philosophy that encourages children's natural curiosity and learning through a playful, integrated, enriching environment. This approach fosters a unique reciprocal relationship between the teacher and the child, where children are active participants in their own learning.

I would not hesitate to send my children to Pathways Preschool, secure in the knowledge that Dr. Schoppet was affiliated with the program.

If I were trying to figure out where to send my child to school, I would run from this place. I noticed the person giving the tour telling me a few lies. I reached out to my friend who sends her kid here and she says they only spend about 20 minutes a week in the art room but I was told they go in there everyday. My friend also told me they failed to close the school when COVID-19 was spreading which shows they do not care about the children's safety. The way the activities are set up doesn't seem child-centered at all. I was also told they have a low student to teacher ratio but I counted and

Pathways Preschool is great for families looking for a quality, positive atmosphere for their child to grow in their preschool years. Their teachers are caring, encouraging and mentor each child and documents their growth in the Reggio Emilia perspective, which is unlike most preschools! The children spend time outside and build on their knowledge in a classroom. Families and staff enjoy the genuine relationships that are fostered at Pathways. It truly is a place where you and your child should start on their educational path!

There is definitely something special about Pathways preschool. I had went to so many tours before and took me a good yr searching for the right preschool. When we came to Pathways, we felt immediate comfort and trust that we sat down for registration right away. It's been over 6 months and we've been amazed by the wonderful teachers, programs and Dr.Roz. Highly recommend Pathway preschool!

We have been part of the Pathways family for about 10 months. We love how involved the teachers are, even with all the constraints 2020 has brought us, Pathways has still figured out how to bring a sense of community to the parents and children. We definitely feel fortunate to have found this incredible place for our daughter to learn and grow.
