STUDY SARANAY CENTER
Saranay Study Center Guidance program recognizes the peculiar being of the early childhood children. It acknowledges that these children are individually different from one another. They do have needs that vary, and meeting those diverse needs is a necessity. Consequently, it is very important to provide them with a supportive and age appropriate learning environment.
Our mission is to provide a learning environment where children are nurtured and trained to reach optimum development, and therefore become responsible members of the community.
We are envisioned to produce children who are sufficiently equipped with knowledge, skills oriented and value laiden individual. Our goal then is to provide age appropriate learning experiences, which help children develop and reach their full potential.
Preschool education serves to be the foundation of child's academic career. Studies shows that aside from the home, a child's preschool experience plays a vital role in his success in later learning. According to Bloom's study on intelligence “the environment, together with hereditaey is a very important factor in determining the educational achievement of children.” It is also streessed that most of a child's intellectual occurs during the first eight of life. Therefore, learning as well as environmental experiences during those years are also most critical. And preschool years indeed provide an excellent opportunity for early childhood professionals and counselors to make a positive impact on the long range development of ECED children.
This program provides a comprehensive and developmental services to children ranging from the nursery, kindergarten, and preparatory level. The services are parallel to the center's mission, vision, and goals, and share the commitment toward families and community with the professionals.The mission of our program is to foster a learning environment where children families and professionals value one another, become life long seekers of knowledge and give positive contributions to the community.
The program helps children, families and staff to develop positive experiences. It utilizes a variety of services and activities to meet the varied needs of children. The areas for councelling services are as follows: academic difficulty, interpersonal relationship, self-esteem issues and concerns, negative changes in behavior, matters on physical or seual abuse, as well as matters or issues on health, fear and anxieties.
The means and ways in which services will be utilized may be through Individual councelling: which aims to assist the child/ children to develop effective coping, problem solving and decision making, as well as to provide necessary linkages for support. Another way is through group counselling; which on the other hand aims to provide opportunity for children to receive peer support and feedback that could help them fell better and more understood. Conferences is another. Thse is whre the center's counselors will meet with the parents of the children in need of the councelling services to discuss academid, emotinal or social and family concerns. Then last is through refferals, where the schools counselors will seve as referral agents in helping children and their families receive the needed or requested within the school system as well as the agencies within the community.
By utilizing the above enumerated means of counseling and services, Saranay Study Center strives also to meet the National Standards for School Councelling programs, which provide the guidance, direction and framework for schools in developing effective school Counseling Programs and Services.
