August 28, 2024 // Franchising.com // ISELIN, NJ - Lightbridge Academy celebrates a 95% proficiency rate in kindergarten readiness skills according to a 2023-2024 Vine Assessment of four and five-year-old pre-kindergarteners at Lightbridge Academy centers with pre-K programs utilizing the Seedlings Early Childhood Program were assessed across key learning domains. This result showcases that Lightbridge Academy students possess the aptitude to succeed not only in kindergarten but in their future elementary years.

“For our Lightbridge Academy team, this achievement not only highlights the effectiveness of our whole child approach to education but is also a testament to the dedication of our teachers and the eagerness of our children to learn,” said Jennifer Romanoff, Vice President of Education and Training at Lightbridge Academy. “By focusing not just on academic skills but also on emotional and social development, we're ensuring that our students are well-equipped to succeed in all aspects of their lives.”

This school year's results showcase an impressive increase in readiness results from the fall to spring assessments. This increase can be attributed to the focus on individualized instruction based on each child's prior assessment and an increase in thematic unit activities. Lightbridge Academy's whole-child educational approach to learning prioritizes the full scope of a child's developmental needs to ensure that every child reaches their fullest potential. Lightbridge Academy's proprietary Seedlings Early Childhood Education Curriculum utilizes theme-based lessons to strengthen your child’s emerging skills in reading, writing, science, technology and math. Additional enrichment programs included in the curriculum are also available such as Spanish Sprouts, Signing Sprouts, Singing Sprouts, Yoga & Mindfulness, and reading/writing curriculum to expand on key building blocks that support its multi-sensory approach.

Lightbridge Academy partnered with Procare’s Vine Assessment to enable its teachers to observe and assess the developmental milestones each child achieves throughout the year. Utilizing the Vine Assessment, teachers actively observed and assessed children in the areas of Mathematics, Science, Literacy Knowledge & Skills, Language & Communication, Social/Emotional, Perception, Motor & Physical, Creative & Cultural Arts, and overall approaches to Learning.
