Description: Our Hope Lutheran School offers a safe, family environment for children to grow, learn, and develop their faith. The school provides education for preschool prep through pre-kindergarten ages. Our before & after school care program is for children up to 12-years of age. Pick-up and drop-off is available to and from Huntertown Elementary School & Cedar Canyon Elementary School. Our philosophy centers around providing a hands-on approach to learning in a Christian environment.
We believe in educating your child through using time-tested, developmentally appropriate educational practices that foster a child's creativity, curiosity, cognitive growth, self- actualization, self- expression, social growth, moral development, character, and natural learning abilities.
We believe that all children are God- given and learn differently; thus, we engage each individual child with a rich, interactive, differentiated, educational experience.
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.
