MDO 3 is our program for 3-year-olds.
Our approach to learning focuses on physical, cognitive, social and emotional development. Weekly themes are designed to fill our students with pride and a desire to learn more.
We offer a wide range of developmentally appropriate toys and activities to encourage exploration and independence.
Curriculum is designed around the early learning and development standards created by the Connecticut Office of Early Childhood Education.
