Involved in Early-Childhood Education and Development since 1999, through formal education, seminars, and classroom time, I have witnessed first-hand the evolution of class-room content-delivery and various learning and development concepts. While each iteration promises the noble objective of improving learning outcomes among children in new and sometimes exotic ways, there is an undeniable constant. Each child is different.
Our mandate must then be MEETING each child where he or she is, and developing person-specific strategies to enable his and her genius.
Our Team and Partners are Degreed/Degree-seeking, and Certified Professionals from West Virginia colleges and universities Education and Professional Development Programs:
- Shepherd University
- West Virginia University
- Blue Ridge Community and Technical College
- James Rumsey Community & Technical College
- WV-Apprenticeship for Child Development Specialist (ACDS)
We are educators at heart. As such, we understand what is required to evolve a high-quality Early-Childhood Education and Development program which will Nurture children, Empower Families, and Enable Workforce in our community.
Our experienced and certified teachers, recruited and selected primarily from the local university education and professional studies program, will be delivering a NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) certified program content in a technologically contemporary environment which uniquely positions us to be successful at meeting the needs of our families.

Classroom Educators
Lead Teachers
Lead teachers develop weekly schemes from our accredited master curriculum, and are reviewed by our education program manager. The weekly schemes outline activities in each developmental area, and the method of delivering the content, and measuring effectiveness.
Classroom Teachers
Classroom teachers meet children where they are developmentally, and work with teachers to construct a plan of action for each individual child. These teachers deliver curriculum planned by the lead teachers to develop progress in the children in the six domains of early childhood development.
Project Team (Rotating Teachers)
The project team/ rotating teachers consist of students from local colleges, universities, and early childhood development programs that perform tasks to help our program excel. While working at Village Square Learning, project team members work with lead and classroom teachers to assist in helping each child reach their developmental milestones.
