The New Playground
We have partnered with Lee Recreation, Inc. to design an innovative, high-quality play space that meets the needs of our school population and community.
​
Lee Recreation is an exclusive distributor of BCI Burke,
a leading manufacturer of advanced modular play systems.
Our new playground is not just for physical movement. It will ignite cognitive, social, emotional and imaginative skill development in children of all abilities.
1
Cognitive
Through play, children learn cause and effect, cognitive planning, and time for play helps children pay more attention to the cognitive tasks needed to succeed in school.
​
​Letting our minds develop through play reduces stress and helps us be more productive and creative.
2
Physical
Developing gross and fine motor skills, core, upper and lower body strength, proprioception, balance and agility are important to helping a child develop physically. Play does this automatically by encouraging kids to explore, pursue adventure and overcome obstacles. And it’s fun.
3
Social
Socialization is important at all ages and stages of development. It develops empathy, teaches cooperation and is important for mental health. As children age, they transition from parallel to cooperative play and begin to develop friendships.
