At the core of our success lies the intersection of 6
focuses that cultivate the graduates of SMARTY Pants.
Our Mission
At Smarty Pants, our mission is to spark children’s love for learning through a curriculum that is structured to promote their academic, personal and social development. We create confident and independent students. The process is empowering and the opportunities are limitless. That’s the SMARTY difference.
There’s a difference between a daycare and
an Early Learning Center.
95% Gifted
Testing Scores
The Smarty Pants program yields some of Chicago’s highest performing competency scores on the CPS selective enrollment test. This allows parents to enroll their children in the top, gifted and classical schools in the city.
Proven Advanced
Proficiency Curriculum
Our program approaches early childhood education with a different perspective through our Smarty model. We foster our smarties beyond the traditional education no preparation.
This is achieved by our focus on:
S-cience, M-ath, A-rt. R-eading, T-echnology, and Y-oga.
1:4 Teacher To
Student Ratio
Small class sizes and individualized learning plans are crucial to academic success.
We all know how sacred personalized attention is on the process of developing our sense of belonging. That’s why at SMARTY Pants we go above the demands of state licensing requirements and assure that each SMARTY gets the attention they deserve.
Award-Winning.
