First Christian Church Preschool

Our preschool program at First Christian Church is designed to meet the challenges of preschool children. We have programs for 3 and 4 year olds. Each program is designed to offer many different avenues that will enable children to grow by focusing on: cognitive/language, social, emotional, physical, creative development. Each of these areas is vitally important to a well-rounded child that is ultimately ready to enter kindergarten with confidence and the ability to be independent. Daily schedules are designed to enable each child to explore areas of interest be creative, and learn problem-solving and personal interaction skills necessary to be successful by participating in: creative learning centers; children working in a nurturing atmosphere; extensive art and music a curriculum rich in science math and language arts; time for constructive play both indoors and outdoors in our sensory play area; emphasis in healthy snacks by incorporating an interactive nutrition curriculum. The Director and Teachers at First Christian Church are licensed and follow the requirements of KDHE, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. Continuing education is on-going providing the teaching staff with current innovative techniques in early childhood development and education. The church and local donations sponsor the scholarship program which is available for qualifying families. We follow the USD 308 calendar, operating during the school year only.
