OUR PRESCHOOL PHILOSOPHY

We believe each child progresses at his/her own rate. Children learn through visual, auditory and kinesthetic activities. Children learn with concrete examples and hands-on experiences. Therefore, we provide a wide variety of experiences for our preschoolers. We introduce new concepts and consistently reinforce them.

We believe learning should be natural and fun as well as challenging. We introduce and review learning skills such as colors, shapes, cutting, coloring, sequencing, and patterns. Phonemic awareness and letter recognition are introduced. The emphasis is on introducing skills and guiding the child through the preschool program at his or her own individual pace. Our Pre-Kindergarten program includes reading readiness (Zoo Phonics) and hands-on math experiences.

We believe it is important to develop the “whole child”. We provide an environment that builds a child’s self-esteem. Our preschool environment also gives children opportunities for problem solving, group interaction, sharing, listening, taking risks and making good choices.

We encourage children to grow physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and spiritually. We provide experiences in each of these areas including chapel time with Bible stories and songs.
