MultiAge programs offer a unique opportunity for families to support their children in
a critical period of academic and social-emotional development.

A Tailored Education

developmental milestones are most often listed in a linear

format , the rate and sequence that each child meets those
benchmarks can be different .

M ulit A ge

classrooms tap into these

differences and use them to enhance a child ’ s learning experience .

Small group learning and peer groups remain flexible based on each child’s
developmental path, not on their chronological age. At Orchard, our Early
Childhood Program leverages the benefits of a multiAge environment alongside
the best practices of progressive education. It’s that combination that creates a
truly unique experience for each child and family that is a part of our community.
