Environment

The Bright Sunrise Preschool campus is set in a beautiful portion of the Evergreen area of San Jose.

The Bright Sunrise Preschool Campus

The classrooms are set up by our early childhood education experts to give the children full opportunities to learn as they pursue their interests. The beautiful outdoor playground is used to allow children to play and explore with nature as they interact with the world outside. The outdoor time the children have will build on what they have done in the classroom, giving them numerous chances to work on their problem-solving skills, improve their fine and gross motor skills, and follow up on their own interests and curiosity. The indoor learning environment has been arranged and set up each lead teacher to nurture and encourage each child by the creation of an aesthetically pleasing classroom that places each child in the lead role in their learning and development. The teachers thoughtfully place and arrange the materials to create a safe place that will give the children the opportunity to build positive relationships with the other children as well as with their teachers.
