KLA SCHOOLS’ GRAND OPENING SET FOR OCTOBER 25th AT 2:30 PM

PLAINFIELD, IL (SEPTEMBER 25, 2013) – KLA Schools is a brand new child care center in Plainfield that offers children a unique learning environment inspired by the Reggio Emilia model developed in Italy. The Reggio model is an acclaimed teaching and learning model developed after World War II that is a child-centered approach.

KLA Schools provide children the opportunity to explore the world around them and problem solve at their own pace with the assistance of teachers, rather than having a fixed curriculum dictated to them. This collaborative environment has been proven to be one of the most effective learning models in existence.

The Reggio Emilia model has been featured on CNN and its merits and successes have been touted in journals around the world. KLA Schools will offer students an atelier, or art workshop studio, where students can find inspiration for their innate creativity, a piazza where children can gather and feel as though they are part of a community, a garden where children can learn about the joy and wonder of growing and harvesting food, and a natural based playground inspired by the world around them.

“I am thrilled to announce we are the first school to offer an innovative parent portal so that parents can see what is going on in the classroom and help to understand their child’s learning environment and keep up with the latest technology. Our teachers carefully plan the experiences to meet or exceed the new IL Early Learning standard benchmarks. The teaching staff with continually undergo professional training, including trips to Italy, conferences, and continuing education so that they provide the highest level of learning and education to every student.” says Erica Koegel, the Director who has over sixteen years of experience in Early Childhood.

“We ensure children achieve Confidence, High Self-Esteem and a Sense of Security by listening to their Voice and Individuality by offering a Unique Environment to Explore and Discover” says Selvei Rajkumar, the Managing Director who is excited to serve the Plainfield and surrounding communities.

The Grand Opening of KLA Schools is nearly upon us, with the Ribbon cutting Ceremony taking place on Friday, October 25, 2013 at 2:30pm. If you wish to learn more about KLA Schools or to schedule a tour of this new facility in Plainfield, call 815.617.9KLA(552).
