At I14, children are exploring concepts of the world around them through conversation, imagination, investigation, and innovation.
It is a chance for children in grades Kindergarten through 5th grade to work on practical life skills while igniting their curiosity and desire to learn about the topics that interest them.

A place that honors children, their thoughts, and ideas by providing a nurturing environment that stimulates learning, entices curiosity, and encourages expression through the hundred languages.
The individual child is given space and the needed support to become independent thinkers of their own pace.
A place that partners with families and community by providing opportunities to learn and work together as well as sharing the children's experiences with one another.
A place that recognizes educators as thinkers, researchers, and leaders forging the way to provide the best education and care for young learners.
Philosophy Our school is guided by the principles of child development and the philosophy of Reggio Emilia.
One principle we uphold is that children learn through the construction of their own knowledge which supports all domains of development.
Another guiding principle of the Reggio Emilia philosophy we abide by is that children have "rights.
" At JAM Early Education we put special focus on the "right to nature" and the "right to create.
" We are continually improving our practices through the study and application of this philosophy.
JAM Early Education believes children have the right to a safe, nurturing, and choice-filled environment.
We believe children succeed and learn best when allowed independence, exploration of interests, and expression of their individuality.
We promote respect, kindness, beauty, love, order, and a positive environment.
We value the religious, economic, cultural, and education diversity of children and families, and we will work with you to incorporate these aspects into the student's day.
JAM Early Education provides hands-on activities and real-life experiences.
Through these opportunities children find meaning in the work they do thus increasing their depth of learning.
We introduce children to ideas starting with the simplest form of an idea (ex.
putting on their shoes) and moving into more complexity (ex.
tying their own shoes).
We believe each child has the capacity for growth and development and is guided to develop in all areas: emotional, social, creative, physical, spiritual, and intellectual.
We offer opportunities that are right for their current developmental needs.
We strive to nurture the lifelong enthusiasm for learning within each child.
