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.
