The needs and interests of the children are the basis of the curriculum. Our program is designed to allow children to develop and unfold as the unique persons they are. The environment is carefully prepared to foster curiosity, independence and self-esteem.
Our Christian program recognizes that early childhood is the time of greatest physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual growth.
Art, stories and music are a part of each day, as are small group activities and motor development. The pre-kindergarten class stresses school readiness. There are teacher-planned and supervised learning stations to give the child a broad range of science, art, creative drama, pre-math, and pre-reading on sequential levels.
Developing a good self-image is important to the child. This image grows as he or she learns new skills, develops self-control, learns to assume responsibilities for choices and works with others.
Each child is valued for him/herself. A feeling of God's love for the child, the family and all people is ongoing. Learning to say "thank you" in prayer is part of every school day.
