Parents' Comments
Parent #1
My oldest daughter attended BFC the last 3 yrs. & had the best experience. The teachers give so much love, attention and affection as well as providing academic stimulation. The children learn a lot in one yr. in regards to academics, socialization and character building.
Parent #2
Bible Fellowship Preschool is a wonderful place for children! My daughter is starting her second year in a few weeks and it has been such a wonderful experience for our whole family. The teachers and staff are caring and loving and make the kids excited and happy to be at school! I would recommend Bible Fellowship Preschool to anyone.
Parent #3
The school provides guidance for growth for each child. The one on one time with each child is great. The resources and materials that are given to the parents is very helpful.
Parent #4
Strengths - taking care of parent concerns and school problems in a timely and fair manner. Some very loving teachers who really care about the kids and others who lack proper training. You take your chances as to who you are getting.
Weakness - lots of new teachers throughout the year. Teachers come and go too often.
Parent #5
The teachers are very patient and loving with the children. Great communication with the parents and between the staff.
Parent #6
Toddler class is outstanding. Some teachers for the older classes seem quite cold.
School Philosophy & Day in the Life
School Philosophy and Mission
"Our philosophy is to provide a climate in which your child can learn through creative play, in an environment reflecting God's love. It is our goal that your child develops a love of learning and a positive self-image during his first school experience through music and stories, the use of a variety of materials, first-hand experiences, physical activities, and exposure to new ideas. Your child will have the opportunity to broaden his understanding of God, himself, others, and his world. Look what we have!

There is no handling of parent child seperation. If your childs cries, they will love your child and provide care to them. But nothing over the top or as listed above.
