Language Enrichment & Articulation for Pre-schoolers
What is LEAP?

By providing intensive language enrichment and articulation (sound correction), LEAP prepares a child with the skill necessary to successfully enter public school.

At the same time, development of social skills is encouraged through supervised play situations.

Parent involvement is essential to the LEAP program. Materials are provided so that parents can work with their children at home to reinforce new skills learned in class.
