Stages Community School proffers early care and education programs in a center setting in Philadelphia. As a center, Stages Community School provides a structured, stable environment day in and day out that parents can count on. This school-like learning arena at Stages Community School can help prepare students for formal school but also make the most of today, with all the resources and opportunities to explore the world around them and the peer set that provides abundant socialization opportunities. Moreover, the full-time schedule at Stages Community School allows parents to get a structured learning environment for their children that’ll help develop cognitive and language skills during these most formative years. The full-time-schedule allows for full curriculums of play, fun and social time with peers and staff. Children will get to know their peers in-depth and form real bonds, which helps develop social and behavioral skills that’ll be important for kindergarten and the years ahead. Stages Community School additionally takes a play-based approach to children's development and learning, facilitating education through interactive, hands-on activities that get children moving. Play-based environments structure their spaces to encourage students to move with independence, passion and explore at their own direction. Staff in these environments encourage and galvanize students to lean into their interests and build their own worlds in cooperation with their peers, and students gain cooperative, social and emotional skills as a result of these communal activities.
