A Message from the Director:
Early childhood education is such an important piece in building a solid foundation for higher learning and social interaction. “The foolish man built his house upon the sand, and the house came tumbling down, but the wise man built his house upon the rock and the house on the rock stood firm.”) Matthew 7:24-27) Every child needs a firm spiritual and academic foundation.
Our goal is to continue the foundation you have built at home emphasizing spiritual, intellectual, physical, and social growth based on solid biblical teachings. Our day is balanced between child- directed and teacher- directed activities. Our teachers make it their priority to create an environment where children have many choices and opportunities for creating, communication, and discovering. Most importantly, children will know they are loved by teachers and staff. Student will participate in weekly chapel services officiated by our pastor, Edward Murrey, and myself. There is something precious about worshiping through the eyes of a child. We also have weekly library story time in our “Little Bookworm Library” for the three- and four-year-old classes.
We know how important these early years are and we are here to provide you and your child the best early childhood education!
