Curriculum

Our preschool program includes a Christian-based atmosphere with Bible stories, song and prayers. We focus on teaching Christian values, being respectful, and treating others kindly. We work on kindergarten readiness, such as letter recognition, handwriting, colors, numbers, shapes, fine and large motor skills, and social skills.

Curriculum is based on each child’s individual needs. We also offer Spanish language.

Learning

Preschoolers
For preschoolers, ages 24 months through 4 years old, the program emphasizes age-appropriate activities and experiences that will enhance spiritual, physical, emotional, intellectual, and social development. We strive to help each child develop a healthy self-concept. Every child’s creativity and individuality are encouraged and respected.

Pre-Kindergarteners
This class works toward kindergarten readiness by learning to: count to ten; cut with scissors; trace basic shapes; speak understandably; identify some alphabet letters; recognize rhyming sounds; listen to stories without interrupting; button shirts, pants, coats and zip up zippers; sort similar objects by color, size and shape; look at pictures and then tell stories; understand actions have both causes and effects; and recognize groups of one, two, three, four, and five objects. Children are encouraged to be independent, capable, and have an eagerness to learn.

 

Snacks and Meals

All snacks and meals served by the school are vegetarian. We offer a hot lunch program of a healthy variety of food, at an additional charge, which families can order for their children.
