Our second season will explore the interconnection of Caribbean culture and produce social conscious, compassionate, critical thinkers who learn the value of differences in children and adults with disabilities.PTST follows the core age-appropriate curriculum for positive early childhood experiences through art of storytelling, games, literacy, music, art, folklore, and fostering positive cultural affirmations.
