PURPOSE - Christ Lutheran Church Preschool’s
(CLCP) curriculum is age-appropriate; both
learning instruction and play are planned with
developmental goals in mind. The Preschool
provides a learning experience with challenges
and stimulation to promote social, cognitive and
intellectual growth in a loving atmosphere with
a Christian emphasis. The program provides a
variety of enjoyable, creative ac
tivities such as
art, music, Spanish, literature, science, cooking
and free play. Classes provide both structured and
child-directed exploration activities to develop
critical thinking, problem solving skills and
positive self-confidence. Class sizes
are small with staff to child ratios exceeding state
requirements, a good indicator of a high quality
program. Christ Lutheran Church Preschool is open to
children of all faiths, and is an outreach program of
Christ Lutheran Church. Chapel time meets twice
a month with a warm, loving Christian message
shared by our Youth Director or Pastor. Bible
stories are integrated with songs, prayer, arts and
crafts through-out the month. Children who are happy, engaged and well loved
rarely have discipline problems. However, when
necessary, a teacher will talk with the child and use
redirection as the next step. All discipline will be
positive, developmentally appropriate and follow
logical consequences. PROGRAM GOALS – Our staff is here to
meet the cognitive, social, emotional, physical,
developmental and spiritual needs of children. This
is accomplished through positive, loving guidance
and instruction by our qualified staff in a safe,
secure environment. ENROLLMENT - Enrollment is open to all
children between the ages of 2½ -6 yr. 11 months,
regardless of race, nationality, ethnic origin or
religion. Current families, alumni and church
members are given priority during the registration
process.
