Program Description

Our Preschool Program is designed to introduce your child to the world of learning. We provide a warm and loving environment in which your three-year-old can grow cognitively, physically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. Our curriculum is theme-based (i.e., apples, gingerbread, farm animals) and incorporates developmentally appropriate activities for three-year-olds.

Our preschool teachers will guide your child through a flexible schedule. The class day contains the following elements:

Circle Time: Students gather to share experiences, interact with the teacher, learn calendar concepts, and listen to literature.

Worship: A special part of the day, worship is held in the classroom and in the sanctuary depending upon the day. The Pastor, Director, and classroom teachers coordinate lessons that share the Good News of Jesus. Bible stories, memory verses, songs, and prayer help your child grow in the Lord.

Center Time: Students self-select from a variety of centers including dramatic play, blocks, and art. The teacher may be found at centers interacting with the children or pulling small groups to the tables for learning activities. With a class size of 11, teachers are able to spend one-on-one time with your child on a regular basis.

Snack: Preschoolers learn important skills such as washing hands prior to eating, table manners, praying, appropriate serving sizes, taking turns, and more. Families provide the healthy snack which incorporates two different food groups.

Large Motor Activities: Weather-permitting, our classes play outside on the playground. With balance beams, trikes, slides, and a sandbox, each child is sure to find an activity that interests him or her. They think it is PLAY but we know this is the time when they can develop large motor and fine motor skills. Raining or snowing? No worries, we plan indoor large motor activities, too.
