Philosophy
Golden Path Academy believes that families are the first, most influential teacher in their child’s life. We understand the importance of a foundation built on trust. We seek to build relationships, establishing a family oriented, Christ-centered program for the entire community.
Golden Path Academy Pathways curriculum is based on the best practices that integrate the works of early child development theorist Erick Erickson, Jean Piaget, and Lev Vygotsky. We believe that children learn the best through their experience and by providing those experiences in a safe, structured environment, your child will grow through hands on learning. Our Christ-centered approach, will allow your child to discover the lifelong values of love and kindness.
Pathways follows the guidelines for developmentally appropriate practices set forth by National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) as well as the Virginia alignment project for early learning standards.
