The Learning Center utilizes an evidence-based classroom management model called Conscious Discipline®. The model—shown to be especially effective in fostering positive brain development in young children exposed to adversity—integrates social-emotional learning, discipline and self-regulation so they spend less time policing behavior and more time teaching vital life skills.

Learning Center Teachers utilize the Creative Curriculum® for Preschool to plan lessons and create daily routines and meaningful experiences that are responsive to a child’s strengths and needs. They also use its associated assessment system My Teaching Strategies™, GOLD® to assess each child’s progress toward development benchmarks.

Our partnership with the Mental Health Center of Denver provides an on-site mental health clinician who supports staff, families, and children by providing problem-solving and wellness skills to help alleviate behavioral and emotional concerns. The clinician also supports teachers in the classroom, assesses children, and provides individual and group support, therapy and trainings.

Warren Village also partners with the Colorado Center for Pediatric Learning and Development (CCPLD) that provides on-site occupational, physical and speech therapy for children. In addition, we are fortunate to have ongoing early childhood developmental support from Rocky Mountain Human Services and Sewall Child Development.

Children are served a healthy breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack prepared by our on-site chef. These meals provide for 2/3 of a child’s daily nutritional requirements.
