Creative Curriculum
We utilize the high quality, researched based “Creative Curriculum” to help prepare our children for future school success. All children, with or without speech-language needs will benefit from our academic-focused and language enriched programs.
This curriculum includes:
Features fun, thematic learning units to address all areas of a young child’s development - social-emotional, academic, fine and gross motor and speech and language.
Teachers use teaching strategies to help foster early literacy, writing, math skills, art, music, movement and more!
Curriculum adheres to the Hawaii Preschool Content Standards and prepares students for achievement according to the Department of Education’s Kindergarten Standards.
We also use Second STEP which is a research-based program to promote social-emotional development in early learning.
Kindergarten Curriculum for Jr. Kindergarten class
Our Jr. Kindergarten program for late born 4 yr olds and 5 yr olds follows a Kindergarten curriculum so students are well prepared for entry into Kindergarten. We use Houghton Mifflin Go Math, Journeys Language Arts, Science Fusion and Social Studies. Our Jr Kindergarten class also has subjects such as Physical Education, STEM, Cultural Studies, Art and Music and Movement.

Students learn how to "Bee" a SUCCESS!
At Sounds of Success Preschool we feel it is important to also teach the basic foundational values so our students grow up to be respectful, caring citizens in our community. Every month students learn about a different character trait and how we can show those traits at home and at school.
We use the word “SUCCESS” to teach the following traits:
S = Show Respect
U = Understanding and Forgiveness
C = Caring
C = Cooperation
E = Everyone be responsible
S = Speak the truth
S = "Stick-to-itiveness" (Perseverance)
Extra-Curricular (Enrichment) Programs
Programs offered include dance classes with Destination Dance Hawaii, sports with Amazing Athletes, music & dance with Gymboree, and soccer with Soccer Shots. All classes are optional requiring a separate registration and payment.
Field Trips
Our students enjoy field trips every quarter to places like the zoo, fire station, Pumpkin Patch and much more!
