OUR PHILOSOPHY
“It is our responsibility to cultivate children’s delight in exploring and understanding their world. Early childhood is and should be a time of laughter, love, play and great fun.”—Carol Copple & Sue Bredekamp
At Hilltop, we believe that play is the foundation for lifelong learning and that parent participation is the key to building community.
OUR PROGRAM
“Hilltop’s socioeconomic diversity means my kids start their interaction with the world seeing it as a diverse, rich and harmonious place.“—Marian Bell, Hilltop parent
Hilltop offers part-time, full-time and extended-day programs for children age 2 to 5 years old. Our program is designed to meet the needs of working parents and our scholarship fund helps ensure socioeconomic diversity.
