About Our Programs
The Preschools of St. Andrew’s is a Christian-based preschool program serving children 16 months through Pre-K. The key to establishing a Christian environment is employing teachers who have committed their lives to Jesus Christ. Teacher will assist the children:
- In becoming more familiar with Jesus Christ through prayer and with weekly Bible stories;
- In helping them understand that God loves them;
- In helping them understand that God makes them uniquely special;
- In growing in their ability to love one another.
The goal of the Preschools is to provide a nurturing environment structured to enable children to become confident, inquisitive and independent learners. We have areas designed for developing math/language skills, sensory exploration, imaginative/dramatic play and gross-motor skills as well as daily art activities. Our outstanding faith based curriculum fosters spiritual growth for the entire family.
Our facilities include seven classrooms, a large muscle room, a full size gym, and two outdoor playgrounds. Additional spaces within the church buildings and nature areas are used for special events and learning opportunities.
We offer the following activities:
- Music
- Spanish
- Intergenerational Activities
- Weekly Chapel
- Computer Tots (Full day program)
