St Mark Lutheran Pre-School

From the Director:

Reggio-Emilia inspired

"Our mission and ministry is to share the Gospel of Jesus with children of our community by providing a Christ-centered education.
Our program philosophy incorporates the following principles:
We Believe . . .
*A young child needs to discover his/her own unique significance in God's world.
*Children should be given every opportunity to develop various gifts God has given to them.
*In helping children grow in heart as well as mind.
Our program is a joint ministry that involves the child, the family, the staff, the congregation, and the community working together to serve the best interest of the child.
