School Philosophy and Mission

"Educational Philosophy
Grace Brethren Preschool operates on the philosophy that the early years of a child’s development are important. During these formative years, the need to establish a solid foundation in the life of the child is critical.
While human development progresses in a predictable pattern, children do learn at different rates. The preschool curriculum is designed to meet the needs of the whole child, providing meaningful experiences using play as a means for learning.
Our aim is to develop the total personality of each child by providing hands-on educational experiences of lasting value:
Intellectually – by encouraging an enthusiasm for learning, exploring, and first-hand experiences of lasting value.
Physically – by encouraging experiences which will develop large and small muscle coordination and motor skills.
Socially – by encouraging participation in group activities, getting along with others, and developing a feeling of security and belonging.
Spiritually – by having a daily time of devotion as well as integrating Biblical concepts throughout all learning experiences, giving each child an awareness of God’s love for him/her
