BEGINNING PRESCHOOL
(Toddlers & Young Two-Year-Olds)
This class, designed for the 18-month-old to the two-and-a-half-year-old, focuses on developing friendships, self-esteem, curiosity, and attention span. At this age, children are making new discoveries daily and begin to exert their independence and imagination. Our Beginning Preschool program opens their eyes to a world of learning, sharing, and exploring.
PRESCHOOL
Based on theory that children learn through play, classroom routines encourage active involvement, meaningful experimentation, and reinforcement through repetition, group and individual activities, circle time, and more! The sessions are flexible as the needs and interests of the children are the basis of our curriculum.
TRANSITIONAL KINDERGARTEN
As children get ready for kindergarten, our comprehensive transitional kindergarten program helps them explore, communicate and create all in a nurturing, small class setting. This program offers reading, language arts, math, social studies, and science presented in a fun way to encourage a lifelong love of learning while giving the child one more year of walking with Jesus in a Christian environment. Curriculum is aligned with local and state elementary school standards so children will be prepared to confidently enter kindergarten.
