Each month the 3 year olds will be learning a certain color(s), shape, nursery rhyme, and number. The lesson will include holidays, community helpers, manners, sharing, fire safety, health, animals, transportation, seasons, weathers, five senses, plants, and more. Every month you will receive from your child’s teacher a calendar for the entire month. Everything that your child will be doing in the classroom will be listed on the monthly calendar. There will be parent-teacher conference held at the end of the year. The 4-year-olds will have a basic introduction the alphabet. Each month will include certain letters, colors, and poems.

There will be two parent-teacher conferences during the year, one in November and one in May. Community workers and field trips will also be a part of our program. If at anytime you or a family member would like to share something special with the children, please feel free to let the director of your child’s teacher know. The children will have Show & Tell every two weeks, please refer to the class calendar for the date and item needed for this time. At no time will toy guns, money, gum or toy knives be permitted at school. The preschool schedule will include a Chapel time everyday. This will be a time for the children to come together and worship. The Chapel time includes Bible songs, Bible verses, and bible stories. The lessons begin with the Old Testament and move all the way through the New Testament. Your child will be given a new bible verse to learn about every two weeks. A newsletter will be sent at the beginning of each bible story that we cover.
