Our preschool program is grounded in a loving, nurturing, Christian
atmosphere of acceptance recognizing each child as a unique individual
gifted by God. Our preschool provides a bridge for the student
between home and school that plays a significant role in the physical,
emotional, spiritual, intellectual and social development of the
child. Our curriculum is based on developmentally appropriate
practice utilizing an integrated thematic approach to learning
through experiential, concrete activities that are considerate
of the varied perspectives, talents and intelligences of our students.
Grounded in dramatic and manipulative play, discussion and open-ended
questioning are utilized as tools in the development of creative
and critical thinking skills and knowledge beyond the students
egocentric perspective.
