About the Provider

Description: Located right across the street from our main campus, the SMCS Preschool is fully licensed by the state of North Carolina. Our staff is well trained to educate and care for young lives. The SMCS pre-school program uses a constructive curriculum that is specifically designed to prepare children for kindergarten. This is done in a fun way that teaches preschoolers basic educational concepts, learning skills, and habits. We pride ourselves in providing a home away from home atmosphere. On pretty days our large playground is a favorite and our gym provides a place for exercise no matter what the weather. A delicious hot lunch is served every day along with snacks as needed.
