Bears– Older Ones & Young Twos
Energy is high and independence is growing. Children run, jump, dance, and talk in short sentences while practicing group routines like walking in line and using cups without lids.

Foxes– Older Twos & Younger Threes
Confidence is building every day. Children practice school-ready skills like lining up, getting dressed, and managing their own trays while strengthening friendships and social-emotional skill

Wolves– Older Threes & Fours
Learning gets busier and louder — in the best way. Children use classroom centers, follow a more structured routine, explore letters and numbers, and continue growing in independence and self-regulation.

Note: Classroom placement is flexible and based on development, director decision, and DCF licensing ratios.
