Located in the heart of Atlanta, our mission is to provide children with a warm, loving Christian environment that strives to promote growth in all areas of development including intellectual, social, emotional, physical and spiritual. Every facet of our preschool program is geared towards providing your child with an enriching education and a strong foundation for learning and individual development.
Peachtree Road Lutheran Preschool was established in 1984 as an outreach ministry of Peachtree Road Lutheran Church. The full day program was begun following the renovation of the educational building in September 1989.
The church is pleased to offer this service to the community as an outreach sharing Gods love for all people in Jesus Christ. As a ministry of Peachtree Road Lutheran Church, we are dedicated to ministering to families with young children in the name of Jesus Christ and as a reflection of His love.
PRLP is operated as a non-profit preschool within the body of Peachtree Road Lutheran Church and is licensed by the Bright From The Start Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning as a preschool day and extended day early childhood facility.

The school strongly believes that learning is a process. A passion for learning therefore is what we strive for everyday in our classes. We want to be able to develop and sustain the child’s natural curiosity so that as he moves on in life the love of learning will always be there. We work towards a hands-on approach and always incorporating the element of fun in all our activities.
We believe that each child is unique and because of this we have a tailored approach to the way we facilitate learning in the classroom. Each set of beliefs, customs and traditions as well as abilities of the child are recognized and taken into account as we work and play in our class. Although we have a set curriculum for each class, we still maintain a flexible environment. We are sensitive to each of our child’s preferences and temperaments for the day. With this knowledge, we provide variations in activities and a wealth of materials for them in the classroom.
Being an Evangelical Lutheran Preschool, we imbibe the Christian values of Love, Faith, Grace, Respect and Responsibility. We strive to be models to our children at all times as we practice these values through our interactions with them.
The school will always strive to work hand in hand with the families in order to meet their needs, when it comes to the development of the child. We see the importance of having a healthy school and home environment for our children and because of this we will always encourage and welcome active parent participation.
We acknowledge a child’s need to assert autonomy and encourage them to do so with the help of positive discipline. We strive to have the children work out their problems and issues by themselves in the spirit of communication, understanding and appreciation of each other. We will also positively reinforce the child and let the child know that he is loved and valued, and that his actions do not dictate his character.
