Early Preschool at First Presbyterian Church
Our Mission
Early Preschool at First Presbyterian Church provides a Christian environment for the social, emotional, cognitive, physical and spiritual development of children ages 18 months through 4 years. In our safe atmosphere of mutual affection and respect, children learn healthy social skills and build self esteem.
Early Preschool, then known as the Early Childhood Center, began in 1986 as an extension of First Presbyterian Church's Early Childhood Ministry and welcomes all members of the community.
Our Curriculum
The curriculum which has been implemented in the Early Preschool is "The Creative Curriculum," written by Diane Trister Dodge and Kate Heroman. Creative Curriculum is a comprehensive blueprint, offering a valuable overview in research and theories, while integrating new developments in the field of early childhood. Creative Curriculum skillfully balances current demands for outcomes and accountability with what we know about the vital role of play in children's learning.
Our Staff
Our educational and administrative staff is a combination of degreed teachers and experienced caregivers. The Early Preschool is renown for maintaining a low teacher-child ratio with two teachers in each classroom. The staff provides a nurturing environment that fosters trust, security and a love of learning within each child.
