Description: Our Mission: Hope Community Preschool exists to give preschool students the foundation to learn mentally, physically, emotionally and socially, through age appropriate lessons and experiences in a loving and caring Christian environment. Hope Family Ministries enhance the preschool experience by offering extended hours and enriching experiences for body, mind, and soul.
Our Philosophy: We strive to offer programs which can be uniquely pieced together by each family to meet their needs. One family may choose a single Tuesday /Thursday preschool class to introduce their child to the school environment. Another may need a longer span of activities for their child and may choose to begin with a “Let's Play Today" fitness program, then Lunch Bunch, followed by an afternoon preschool class. At Hope you self design your program to meet your family’s needs.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. 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.

The program itself has potential, but the nasty attitude and fake personality of the director, Kathy Petrill, is it’s biggest downfall.
