What are you thankful for? Nicole is thankful for Indiana's On My Way Pre-K program.



"Kingston has been in his Pre-K class for only three months, and I’m blown away by how much he’s learned and grown. Before school started, he did not know how to write his name, was not interested in reading books, counted to 12, and had too much screen time at home.



Now, three months in, he can write his name, is recognizing letters, interested in writing his letters, is gradually more interested in reading/listening to books, and his screen time has been greatly reduced. He still gets the rest time that he needs in the afternoon. And this evening, on his own, he looked at a calendar and counted all the squares, from 1 to 35. I was so proud of him.



Socially, he is a very shy kiddo. So being around new friends every day is a good thing. His class picture is hanging on our fridge, and he likes to look at it and point at each classmate and say their name.



His teacher is so great with them. She sends updates and photos of the kids doing different activities. They go on fields trips; they get to do STEM and art and music and computer lab. He’s going to be so ready for kindergarten. We recently had a parent-teacher conference, and she showed us his growth in only a couple months. I’m so glad we made the decision to send him to Pre-K, and I’m thankful for the On My Way program. Thank you!"

Learning

At Brookshire Learning Center, the child comes first. We take pride in not only providing for their physical and emotional needs, but for their developmental needs as well. Our curriculum was created for its balance between both teacher-directed and child-initiated learning. It is our goal to help the children develop the passion for learning that they will carry with them throughout their life.  Brookshire Learning Center uses a weekly theme based curriculum that is designed to foster social, emotional, physical, cognitive, and language development and to enhance learning in literacy, math, science, social studies, and the arts.  This allows the teachers to plan and implement a developmentally appropriate, content-rich program for children of all backgrounds and skill levels that is constantly matching the interests of the students. Please be sure to look for the weekly lesson plans hanging in the classrooms.

Communication

Providing an environment where children grow their confidence and learn to express themselves in a variety of situations.

Social and emotional

Encourage children to develop an attitude of kindness, cooperation, courtesy and helpfulness towards others while developing self-confidence and independence.

Physical

Helping children develop their coordination, control and movement through a variety of fine and gross motor activities.

Expressive arts

Enabling children to explore and play with a wide range of media and materials.

Literacy

Encouraging children to link sounds and letters and begin to read and write. Children are exposed to a wide range of reading materials to ignite their interest.

Mathematics

Helping children with their counting skills, understanding numbers and simple addition and subtraction problems.

Best daycare I’ve ever had for all 3 of my children! We’ve been to places all around the Lafayette area and also in indianapolis and this is by far my favorite place! I love to watch my children grow from room to room and still get to see their old teachers. My school age child still loves to come drop off her siblings just to connect with her old teachers.

We love everything about Brookshire. The staff is phenomenal and I feel comfortable and safe leaving my two year old there. They treat her like their own.

Incredible place to send your children of any age. I had both my girls go though Brookshire, starting at age 1 all the way up through pre-K. Phenomenal teachers. Phenomenal job during the pandemic. Would highly highly recommend to anyone.

Brookshire is outstanding! Both of our boys have gone here. They really prepared my oldest for Kindergarten. The teachers are amazing and truly care about the kids. I had a preemie that had multiple surgeries and I felt comfortable leaving my kids there, which says a lot for this mama bear. I appreciate the organization, wonderful curriculum, and seeing our kids flourish here.

We were enrolled in the Southside Brookshire Learning Center. My daughter went there when she was 5 years old. We had a great experience. Her teacher's were so compassionate with her. I am glad we went there.
