Welcome
to the world of the 21st century learning opportunities, where children
learn through vicarious experiences, enriched curriculum, and hands-on
real life situations! The Bear Blvd. School opened its doors August
15, 2001. Bear Blvd. is a new Spring
Branch ISD school for pre-kindergarten children
(4 years old by Sept. 1st) who live in the area near Spring
Valley. The Bear Blvd. School is one of four schools for early learning
that is available in SBISD. One special feature of our schools is that
we also provide childcare for employees' children ages 6 weeks-4 years
old. Continuing its reputation as a pacesetter in education, SBISD
leads the nation in providing early intervention for all children.
Putting
Children First
The
school includes 18 classrooms and central courtyard with playscapes,
tricycle track, and a climbing hill.
The
beauty of this facility is that it is built especially for four-year
olds. Everything has been planned to fit their needs.
A
Great Curriculum
To
create self-motivated, life-long learners, early childhood programs
in Spring Branch provide a developmentally appropriate, integrated curriculum
that enhances the social/emotional, intellectual, aesthetic, and physical
development of each child while nurturing autonomy, self-esteem, and
success.
