Description: First Presbyterian Church Nursery School is dedicated to developing the emotional, intellectual, social and physical growth of our students. We believe that education is a cooperative effort among students, parents and staff, designed to stimulate the creativity and achievements of each child. Our teachers place emphasis on the process and the joy of learning and creating, rather than on the finished product. We believe in the importance of the individual. We help each student to develop a positive self-image. We believe that a young person learns from his or her total experience in the school setting. We feel that each young person entrusted to us is important, and we consider it an honor and a privilege to be a part of his or her life!

We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
