Preschool

The ultimate purpose of Heritage Christian Preschool is to glorify God and uphold man’s faith in Him through daily living. The Christian philosophy of early education is based on the authority, authenticity and reliability of the Bible and the belief that there are unchanging principles of truth revealing God in all matters of faith, truth and practice. The preschool seeks to make Christ real in the young child’s life by providing a well-balanced program in an age appropriate, safe, healthy, and nurturing environment, emphasizing the following:

  1. Spiritual Growth – Our emphasis is to teach the Word of God, make Christ real to the young students and to assist in the development of a trusting relationship with God.
  2. Cognitive Development – The preschool provides an intentionally planned, well-rounded program with the goal of developing the skills for future academic achievement.
  3. Physical Development – A combination of fine and gross motor development programs are designed to foster the emerging skills and abilities of the young students.
  4. Emotional/Social Development – Preschool students are exposed to a variety of social experiences and lovingly guided towards the acquisition of appropriate skills in the areas of confidence, socialization, and moral values.
  5. Cultural Development – Preschool students are offered age appropriate experiences and activities in music, drama, literature, speech, language, and art. These areas are designed to expose students to other cultures and to encourage them to accept and appreciate cultures other than their own.

The ultimate purpose of Heritage Christian Preschool is to glorify God and uphold man’s faith in Him through daily living.
