Our objective is to offer your pre-school child the best early learning environment before entering Kindergarten. In planning for your child the following considerations are made:
The years from birth to six are critical in the formation of positive learning experiences. Seventy-five percent of intelligence is developed in the first 6 years.
We recognize the five areas of child development: social emotional physical spiritual and intellectual. Centers in the classroom provide
for individual and small group play.

We believe that a childs formative years should be shaped by a Christian philosophy of life – both taught and lived. As the personality of the child blossoms with the love of Christ there will be a solid foundation and a personal treasure that can be shared for a lifetime.
In a context of warm accepting love our teachers will allow your child to grow into the knowledge that he/she is a child of God and a person of infinite worth. While respecting each childs uniqueness we offer positive structured learning experiences in the five areas of child development: spiritual social intellectual emotional and physical. We trust that this will better prepare your child for a smooth transition to the next level of education.
Since the center operates on the premise that the best Christian nurture of young children actively involves the home the church and the Child Enrichment Center working together parent participation is encouraged and appreciated. All families of the Child Enrichment Center are invited to participate in St. Peters services of worship and all other programs of education fellowship and service.
Educational Goals:
1. Teaching about the Bible God and the church. Our Bible Enrichment teacher
shares the stories from the Bible as well as value lessons and Bible songs
at chapel one day a week.
2. Building relational and social skills.
3. Acquiring basic readiness skills in math science art language arts music and
movement. Our Music and Movement teacher meets with each class once a week.
Spanish instruction is also provided for students in the 3 and 5 day program.
4. Developing good health safety and nutritional practices.
5. Developing the necessary fine and gross motor skills needed before
entering kindergarten.
Our planned activities will offer each child many hands on experiences that allow the children to learn about the world through stimulating developmentally appropriate materials and equipment. These activities help in the development of critical thinking skills and concept development.
