Our curriculum is designed to help lay a strong foundation for faith development in each child. Concept areas include God, Jesus, Bible, church, self, family, others, community, and the natural world. Our schedule is designed to strike a balance between self-directed and teacher guided activities and to implement periods of relative quite and rest after periods of active play. Every classroom is arranged in activity centers, highlighting the various activities children can choose to participate in. Classroom centers include areas for home living, a quiet reading corner, manipulatives, blocks and building, music, art, and science. Below is a sample schedule of our daily routines. Classrooms for Two’s and older also attend a weekly chapel.
