                    But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
                            They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
                                they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31

DEVELOPMENTAL KINDERGARTEN

The Developmental Kindergarten program is a full day, five days a week, skill-building program designed to prepare children for positive future school experiences.  Children who benefit from our Developmental Kindergarten are five years old but may need another year to grow and mature before being placed in the traditional Kindergarten curriculum and routine.  The developmental program provides a hands-on curriculum, offering an opportunity to meet various student skill levels.  The small class size allows for individualized attention to each child.  The program includes special classes, such as music, physical education and chapel.  After completing one year in the Developmental Kindergarten, the child will be prepared to enter our traditional Kindergarten program.

KINDERGARTEN

The Traditional Kindergarten program is designed to be the foundation for each child’s lifelong education.  Each child is respected and recognized as a unique individual.  Students are taught that God is pleased when we respect ourselves and others around us.  Students’ growth is nurtured in physical, social and emotional development.  The Traditional Kindergarten program focuses on an academic environment with the goals of mastering beginning phonics and reading skills.  Students also participate in chapel, music, library and physical education.
