Philosophy Statement

We believe that spiritual understanding should begin early and be the foundation of child development. Simple concepts that are basic to all Christians are taught. Children hear a Bible story every day and learn a Bible verse every month. Application to daily life is emphasized. This spiritual emphasis makes Covenant Church Christian Preschool unique in our community.

The developmentally appropriate program utilizes informal situations to encourage each child to learn according to his own readiness.

Our balanced curriculum includes teacher-directed activities and student-selected opportunities for listening and speaking which are necessary for later success in reading and writing. Other activities which feature active involvement are experiences in art, music, health, physical education, premath, prewriting, science, nutrition and social living. Ample free play time encourages social emotional growth for each child.

We hope that the children's experience at Covenant Church Christian Preschool will provide them with a strong foundation for later school success. Even more, we hope it will provide them with the beginnings of a spiritual foundation that will bring happiness in life.
