A Christian effort to teach children the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Our purpose is to instill God's principles in our children and inspire them to be life-long followers of Jesus Christ, and to do His will. We present opportunities and experiences for emotional, physical, social, and most importantly spiritual growth, all in hope for a better future for preschool age children.
Philosophy
Every child is special in God's sight and deserves to be loved, cared for and permitted to develop at his/ her own rate.
Christian principles and values are best taught to young children through example.
Nothing is more important to the development of an individual than a healthy relationship with Christ. In order to learn, a child must gain confidence in his/her individual God-given abilities.
Children learn by doing and should be allowed to express their own creativity through work and play.
Education should be fun and exciting.
We believe the most important lesson in the early years is learning to love and trust the Lord. In learning to follow Jesus, children gain a complete sense of purpose for their life. Their focus will be on their individual gifts and talents.
