Red Brick school is a non-profit educational institution offering classes for children ages 3 through 6. Our extraordinary teachers strive to educate the whole child through a developmental approach to learning.

Each classroom offers your child an opportunity to experience all areas of the eight domains of the Rhode Island Early Learning Standards. Our teachers incorporate social and emotional development, literacy, mathematics, science, creativity, physical health, language development and different approaches to learning into their curriculum.

Our Mission is to recognize that each child is an individual, that all children are creative, and that all children need to succeed. To this end, Red Brick School respects the individual needs of children, and emphasizes their social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development.

Our kindergarten program is designed to help each child reach his or her full potential in an environment that is challenging, secure and nurturing. This is a very exciting time in a child’s life and what we hope will be the beginning of a lifelong love of learning.

Along with other early childhood professionals, we believe that young children learn through active, purposeful interactions with a wide variety of learning materials and activities that develop the growth of the whole child. Because young children are concrete learners, they need to be able to learn by using all their senses and by trying things out on their own. They have to play with it and experiment with it.
