About the Provider
We believe that children are valued members of God's family who benefit by being respected, loved, and led by caring adults. Children need time to ponder, experiment, discover, and grow in an unhurried and accepting atmosphere. We take care to insure that our school enhances these important years of development, providing opportunities to learn through play, experiences and interaction. Our program is designed to provide spiritual, physical, cognitive, social/emotional and creative experiences at the developmental level of the young child. Activities are Christ-centered, showing God's love and guidance in all areas of Christian living. The preschool and pre-k programs are flexible and varied, our kindergarten program offers a full day of listening and interacting which leads to exciting adventures on the path of a lifetime to the love of learning. Our experienced and educated teachers and aides plan for the needs and abilities of each individual child in their classes. Provision is made for experimentation and creative activities, and children develop self confidence and trust as they acquire skills necessary for personal expression and positive social interaction. We believe children benefit when school and family work together to promote their learning and care.
