About the Provider
Little Esko Lutheran Preschool is a faith-based program that emphasizes school-readiness skills for children ages 3 to 5. We offer a safe and nurturing environment, where each child is encouraged to develop an understanding of what it means to be a child of God.
We help children:
experience God's unconditional love
build a positive self concept
practice both fine and large motor skills
learn to relate to other children and adults
expand his/her understanding of the world
develop language skills to effectively communicate
express emotion through art, music and dramatic play
channel curiosity and energy into a love of learning
foster independence
Little Esko Lutheran Preschool provides a Christ-centered preschool experience. We partner with parents to plant the seed of God's love in each child.
LELP staff, with the support of the St. Matthews congregation, works as a team to provide a Christian education. LELP seeks to serve the whole child and family (spirit, mind and body).
Our desire is to adhere to Ephesians 6:4: Fathers, don’t stir up anger in your children, but bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.
Little Esko Lutheran Preschool does not discriminate on the basis of religion, race, color, or national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarship programs, and other school- administered programs.
