Our Preschool Program

Learning through Play, Faith, and Loving Guidance

We offer a half-day preschool program for 3 through 5-year-olds focused on:

  • Kindergarten readiness – letters, numbers, fine motor skills, and more
  • Faith-based learning – Bible stories, songs, and simple prayers
  • Social development – sharing, cooperating, and caring for others
  • Creative play – crafts, music, stories, and outdoor time

Our small class sizes and experienced, caring, teacher and aides provide the personal attention your child needs to grow in confidence and joy.

Rooted in Christian Values

A Safe, Loving Place to Learn About God’s Love

As a ministry of Grace Lutheran Church (LCMS), we teach children that:

  • God made them and loves them
  • Jesus is their Good Shepherd and Savior, and they are His little lambs!

  • They are to show God’s love to others because God has loved them first
