Pre-Kindergarten
Children who are 4 years old by September 1st can experience a full day (8:30 AM – 3:30 PM) of active learning experiences. The classroom will be tuition based. The VPK certificate can be used for this classroom as a scholarship toward the cost of tuition. Please see the cost breakdown below for more information.
Benefits
Your children will:
- Have more time to learn and explore.
- Experience a more school like experience throughout the day from 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM
- Self-pay opportunities available for Soccer Shots and Amazing Athletes during the prekindergarten day.
Spiritual Development.
The most important truth young children can learn, is that Jesus loves them! Our youngest students learn bible stories and apply what they learn to daily life.
Social Development.
We learn to work together. It is vital that that children encounter a wide range of social experiences in early childhood to learn to work with others to solve problems, as well as how to independently solve social problems that arise from interactions with their peers.
Cognitive Development.
God created children to be incredibly inquisitive of the world around them! They are eager to learn and explore as they try to make sense of the world around them. These experiences build a strong cognitive foundation for ongoing learning.
