Our program offers a variety of learning experiences that include physical,
intellectual, social, emotional, and spiritual development. Our philosophy rests
on the premise that each child is a unique and special individual with varying
interests, needs and abilities. What sets our preschool education apart from many
other preschool programs is its decidedly Christian emphasis. As a congregation,
we serve to reach, ignite and empower people for Jesus. Our preschool program
reflects this emphasis by integrating the Christian philosophy spontaneously into
the curriculum.
We strive to prepare an environment that will help children develop to their
fullest potential. Our daily activities include the use of a large motor and group
area, fine motor and manipulatives area, dramatic play area, construction area,
creative expression area, and library and media area. Emphasis is placed on
providing a warm and nurturing environment, and giving the emotional support
and encouragement all individuals need to learn and grow. We encourage handson
experiential learning and provide a balance between self-directed and teacherdirected
learning.
