*At Expressions, we strive to work with parents to give every child the support they need to succeed!

All children develop classroom readiness at their own unique pace- and this is normal!

If you happen to see your child not opening up as quickly, taking longer to pick up skills, or wiggling a little more than their classmates, we know that this is regular behavior and we expect this! Our teachers see it all the time and are trained in ways to best help children with various learning styles!

If you ever have any questions or worries about your child's readiness or participation, you can always chat with your teacher or our Client Experience Team to address your concerns and ensure your child’s needs are being met inside our classrooms.
