MARY SHAW BRANTON THERAPEUTIC PRESCHOOL

Ability KC’s Mary Shaw Branton Therapeutic Preschool is a NAEYC accredited and state licensed Peer Model preschool with a rich history of serving children of all abilities. We provide medical, therapeutic and educational services to children ages 1-5 years old in a caring and inclusive environment. Our teachers and therapists are degreed professionals who are specially trained to address a wide variety of educational, medical and therapeutic diagnoses, with successful kindergarten transition as our goal. Each child’s individual developmental needs are addressed, all while celebrating what makes them unique.  Our teachers utilize the Conscious Discipline approach, a social-emotional curriculum that promotes developmentally appropriate practices for children of all abilities. All of our children benefit greatly from these varied approaches, ensuring a rich learning environment for every child. Each classroom boasts a small student-to-teacher ratio which provides ample opportunities for exploring, interacting and learning. For children with additional needs, we provide integrated therapy services both inside and outside the classroom to ensure each child reaches their personal goals.
