Children: all children are valuable, precious and uniquely created by God. Therefore we work with children in a way that uplifts and encourages them.

Early Childhood: early childhood is a distinct and critical stage of development. So we embrace this journey of early childhood by crafting our classroom setup and activities to address the needs of the whole child.

Integrated Faith: We are a Christian school that weaves faith into the classroom and curriculum. Our routines, transitions and snack times support the emergence of teachable faith moments. We welcome non-churched or non-religious families at ATC.

Cultural Depth: The ability to cherish our own cultural roots, as well as learn about the cultures of those around us is a very important skill in our world. At ATC we make learning about cultures, languages and customs an ongoing occurrence.

Parents and Family: We recognize the importance of parents and family in the development of a child. We seek to support and encourage parents in their roles and offer enriching opportunities for families.

Accessibility of Staff: We embrace our role in reflecting God's intense delight in children through quality interactions that are personal and individualized and that reflect our deep interest and sensitivity to each child.
