HOGG'S HOLLOW Preschool and Kindergarten was established in 1975 by Rose Hogg, to provide the ideal environment for her son and his friends.
 
Although her son graduated many years ago, Rose thoroughly enjoys working and playing with the new friends who arrive at Hogg's Hollow each year.

OUR PHILOSOPHY is that children are people just like anyone else but with small bodies. 

They should be treated with the same respect we give to adults.

We view each child as a spiritual being with infinite potential.

Communication is the key to raising and educating happy, capable children.

Our goal is to ensure that every student understands 100% of what he or she is being taught, and can genuinely use the information in life.





OUR VIEWPOINT is that our children can be, do and have anything they want in life, but it will be up to them to achieve their goals.

We find that children do best when they get to earn things they want and also are allowed to help their parents and others around them.  In this manner, the children gain a sense of self worth and pride from jobs well done.



OUR ENVIRONMENT is tailored to the individual needs of our students.  We provide activities that are involving by nature and challenge 3 to 5 year olds to excel.

We look for and cherish teachable opportunities, spurred on by the unfailing curiosity of our students.

As each student shows readiness for reading, our reading instructor provides private lessons which enable the student to move forward in learning to read at their own pace.

It is hard to overstate the advantages of this approach.  Children respond to one-on-one reading lessons with great enthusiasm.  Frustrations, such as not being able to ask questions because the teacher is talking to the class, are totally absent from this method.

We believe that reading is so vital to the child's future, it shouldn't be left up to chance.



OUR STAFF are caring, trained teachers who have a genuine interest in young children and share a sense of purpose in helping to prepare the next generation for their roles in life.

We have found that the best way to encourage young children in their efforts to become more responsible and grown up is for the adults around them to set an excellent example.

We are also committed to the professional growth of our staff, which we achieve through participation in educational conferences, workshops and seminars on children, teaching and education.



OUR PARENTS' involvement in school events is highly valued and encouraged.  These are opportunities to promote communication and teamwork between teachers and parents.
