Welcome to the Nursery School!

• We are a church-affiliated school with an emphasis on social skills.  Our curriculum follows state guidelines for early childhood.  The children are exposed to a variety of educational experiences to prepare them for elementary school, and, more importantly, for life.  They will develop skills in getting along with others, sharing and being kind to others  Their gross motor and fine motor skills will be developed and their knowledge of the world around them will increase.  Each class has singing time, story time and craft time with age appropriate activities. Classes have a teacher and an aide present at all times and the staff have their child protection clearances along with CPR and First Aid training.
• Feel free to schedule a visit to our school and see for yourself!
