Adventure Park Academy was established in 2007, and is privately located inside Adventure Park USA. There are four fully functioning classrooms, preschool for ages two and three year olds, pre-kindergarten for ages four and five year olds, and school age for ages five to thirteen year olds. Currently the Academy has a staff of five full time teachers and five part time teachers. The learning programs offered are based on the Houghton Mifflin curriculum, which is an approved program by Maryland State Department of Education. The Academy is not your typical childcare program. We are unique in that we not only provide a structured learning program for our preschool and pre-k children but also includes all the fun of amusement park attractions and arcade games that Adventure Park USA has to offer. We are dedicated to providing a developmentally appropriate learning environment for young children between the ages of 2 years and 13 years of age. Our goal is to nurture each child’s need for social, emotional, physical and cognitive development by providing an educationally balanced program which spans all levels of early development. Each child will be valued for his or her unique experiences and learning styles in order to become successful independent learners. We provide a place where children can learn through play, have an opportunity for discovery, exploration, and express ideas through hands-on learning experiences
