About CEFA

The CEFA educational system at Core Educational & Fine Arts (CEFA) Junior Kindergarten is one of today's leading approaches to educating young children.

This wonderful approach facilitates learning experiences for children in areas such as mathematics, reading, writing, drama, science, visual arts, music, yoga and many more.
