Family Programs

 
Beyond School

SolBe is a firm believer that you are your child’s first teacher. Because of this, we also believe it is essential that you are as involved in your children’s lives as much as possible. That’s why we offer family programs such as Jungle and Ocean Yoga (it’s as adorable as it sounds), where you can take part in promoting health and wellness with your children. We also offer classes just for parents, like our Overview of Positive Discipline program.

In addition to these programs, we also offer cooking classes as well as other support programs for parents. We look forward to hearing from the community about what opportunities are of interest and welcome proposals from individuals or groups who are seeking space!

Why Parent Engagement is so Important

It’s believed within the education field that one of the most accurate predictors of an individual child’s success is the extent to which families are both involved in their child’s education, and how much they are encouraging learning and growth at home.

The very essence of parent engagement is a symbiotic relationship, where both the educator and parents share equal responsibility in helping their children learn and meet their educational goals. That’s why at SolBe, we value transparency and making sure that our parents have everything they need to help their children thrive.

Here at SolBe, we start the parent engagement process early, which sets up your children for long-term success by creating a love for learning. According to a study conducted by Harvard psychologist Nancy E. Hill that looked over 50 reports done on the subject, educational researchers found a connection between family involvement and academic success.

When it comes to successful growth in education and creativity for children, what goes on away from the classroom is just as important as what goes on in it.

Be Supported

We’ve felt the uncertainty that occurs when our children are in the care of someone else. At SolBe, we know you will always be your child’s first teacher; we’re here as a knowledgeable partner in your child’s education.

From our experience, children rise to the intellectual life of those around them, so we are committed to growing as individuals and as a team. You can count on us to provide a warm and engaging learning experience for your little one.

Be Inspired

We’ve spent thousands of hours in classrooms that either overstimulate, underwhelm, or actively prevent educators from delivering the highest-quality education and care. At SolBe, you’ll go beyond the traditional four-walled classroom.

Our award-winning, inventive and uplifting learning spaces stimulate the senses and instill feelings of home-like safety and comfort. They allow for your child’s, and our educators’, changing needs and emotions. They create room for wonder—for learning, and living, outside the lines.

Be Immersed

We’ve seen what’s lost when things are done the way they’ve always been done before. SolBe is an adaptive Spanish exposure program that refuses to accept the status quo.

Our inventive practices grow from the shoulders of giants, with roots in the Reggio Emilia approach, the Montessori method, and well-researched cognitive disciplines that attend to the whole child. We create opportunities to develop character attributes that your child will benefit from for a lifetime. Collaboration. Communication. Independence. Healthy risk-taking. Critical thinking. Emotional awareness. Resilience. Intellectual curiosity. Creative innovation. An authentic love of life and learning.

Be Well

We know what it’s like to forget to feed ourselves—physically, mentally, and emotionally. At SolBe, we understand it’s impossible for you to pour from an empty cup. And we do what we can to keep your cup full.

Our learning ecosystem is designed with children and educators—and you—in mind. Seed-to-table nutrition program. Yoga and mindfulness. An all-inclusive experience so you don’t need to worry about finding time to provide meals, diapers, or wipes (unless you want to). Evening and weekend family programs.
