2-5 years old. Nurturing children in the spirit of Christian love, our

school is not just an opportunity to see your children thrive and learn,

but a place where your family can grow with other families.

A welcoming community of teachers, parents, and children forge

relationships that have endured far past preschool.

Educational Philosophy

Hands By combining imaginative play with creative work,we can help prepare your child not only for
kindergarten, but also for many other challenges. Our program offers a variety of experiences to help your child grow into a more sensitive, capable and creative individual. Supervised
learning and play in both self-selected and teacher-guided activities will give your child the opportunity to,
develop essential skills in language, listening, math,
science, and observation. Develop a sense of self worth
Grow socially and learn to respect the rights of others throughassociations with peers and adults. Participate in hands on activities that develop creativity and self expression.

...In addition, students in our program learn of God's love
for them. We teach, and encourage, Christian beliefs and values,
but we respect all faiths and denominations. Chapel, held once a week in the church sanctuary, is lead by the Director of Christian Education.
