Ascend Curriculum

Thanks to the flexibility of our Ascend Curriculum, we take an individualized approach to early childhood education and encourage every child to progress towards age-appropriate goals at their natural pace. New skills are introduced sequentially in 9 different learning domains each month and activities are modified to fit the interests and current skill level of each child. This skill-based approach to early education ensures that every child feels engaged, supported, and challenged and makes learning fun!
Kind Child Program

Another significant part of our curriculum is our Kind Child program. Kind Child is a year-long program for children ages two and older that helps our teachers nurture and strengthen every child’s social and emotional skills. We have found that when we focus on the emotional well-being of each child in our care, we strengthen our school as well. We are confident that Kind Child will continue to strengthen the culture of our entire preschool center by elevating every child’s feelings of happiness, improving their well-being, and enriching their friendships.

Our Team
Stephanie Adamcyk
School Director
I love engaging with the children and being a part of their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth and development journey. I also enjoy supporting and mentoring the teachers and watching them shine. I started working in early childhood education when I was 18, I had my daughter and wanted to be where she was. The plan was to follow her as she grew but I couldn’t see myself leaving after falling in love with these little ones (6 weeks to 4 yrs old). I wanted to be a part of their lives as well. I started out as an aide and became a teacher soon after. I had the most fun teaching pre-kindergarten, I spent most of my years with that age group before moving up to administration. I was an assistant director for several years before moving up into the director position. It was as a director that I found a larger purpose. I was no longer just in charge of 12 kids, but instead was a role model and leader for the entire school.
Kayla Pletsch
Administrative Assistant
I began working in early childhood education when I was 19 years old, without the expectation that it would turn into a career. I started out as a part-time floater, and through the years I worked my way up to different managerial positions both in and out of the classroom. Helping parents as they navigated the early years was also very important to me. I always enjoyed working with children and supporting their growth, but I truly fell in love with the work that was pouring into my fellow teachers. Supporting a teaching team of young men and women was both rewarding and fun – every day felt like I was making my community a better place. I still feel this way all these years later. Being a part of the admin team at Cadence is a new adventure that I’m excited to be on.
