Where Education & Art Meet
Welcome to Aurora-Christine School of Arts
Aurora-Christine School of Arts is a daycare and preschool program dedicated to providing a safe, supportive, and inspiring environment where young children can learn, grow, and shine. We are also currently offering aftercare hours for elementary school students in grades K–2, giving families a reliable and enriching option beyond the regular school day.
As an art immersion program, we go beyond traditional early childhood education by incorporating creative enrichment opportunities that inspire the whole child. Students engage in activities such as art, gymnastics, and karate, alongside core subjects like science, social studies, engineering, reading, and technology.
Our curriculum is aligned with Pennsylvania State Standards and Objectives, ensuring that children develop a strong academic foundation while also nurturing creativity, curiosity, and confidence.
At Aurora-Christine, we combine the structure of early education with the joy of the arts, preparing children not only for school success but also for a lifetime of creativity, confidence, and self-expression.
Building Skills for Life
Through hands-on, developmentally appropriate activities, students strengthen essential skills like:
-
Fine motor coordination
-
Sensory development
-
Executive function
-
Hand-eye coordination
We also encourage age-appropriate classroom discussions about current events, safety, and weather—helping students build confidence in their voices and ideas.
Customized Academic Care
Each student begins with a small assessment to identify strengths and areas for growth. From there, we create a personalized action plan that guides their learning journey. This individualized approach allows students to:
-
Build on their existing knowledge
-
Close gaps in understanding
-
Accelerate learning through project-based activities
-
Develop a year-long academic portfolio showcasing progress and creativity

What makes AC different?
The arts are an integral part of our program, significantly enhancing the overall experience for our students and nurturing their creative abilities. Throughout the academic year, each semester, we make it a priority to introduce an additional enrichment activity that complements our core offerings, which include Art, Cooking, Gymnastics, Music, and Karate. For example, in our Art classes, students might have the opportunity to experiment with new mediums and techniques, allowing them to expand their artistic skills. Similarly, in our Cooking sessions, we could introduce workshops focused on exploring cultural, which would provide students with a broader culinary perspective. This dynamic and adaptable approach not only keeps our curriculum engaging and exciting but also promotes personal growth and a richer appreciation for the various forms of artistic expression.

The school inspires and enhances each child’s creative abilities through individualized care and innovative integration of database-development programming into the curriculum.
