Our intention is to offer a warm Christian atmosphere where children grow intellectually, physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. The A,B, C, Jesus Loves Me preschool curriculum includes age-appropriate experiences in each of these developmental areas, prayerfully supporting happy, well-adjusted children. We seek to instill and reinforce Christian values that will enrich a child’s life and learning, providing a strong foundation for their future.

The Preschool schedule is designed so that each day, children will learn through imaginative play, self-expression in groups, stories, and creative arts. Because of our spiritual foundation, children will also have the opportunity to hear Bible stories, pray before snacks, and learn church songs.

Each month you will receive a newsletter and calendar that will keep you informed about our learning themes as well as any special events planned. Throughout the year, there are a number of special events, celebrations and local field trips. Children will also participate in weekly music and art class. You can look forward to special programs at Christmas and in May as we celebrate our year end.
