CONCORD – Cannon School’s first grade information session will take place Thursday, Dec. 6, at 10 a.m., at Cannon’s Concord campus at 5801 Poplar Tent Road.
Parents of rising first-graders are invited to learn from Head of Lower School Michelle Alexander how Cannon School’s teaching philosophy of “adaptive expertise,” curriculum and supportive teachers provide essential building blocks that nurture young learners and address the specific developmental needs of first graders.
“This session is an opportunity for parents to learn how our first-graders at Cannon School engage in active learning that encourages their emotional, social, physical and academic development,” explains Alexander. “First grade is a year where students make considerable strides in all of these areas, and our teachers are highly trained to recognize and support differences in the needs and learning styles among our 6- and 7-year olds.”
Parents are encouraged to pre-register at www.cannonschool.org/openhouse.
