The philosophy of First Presbyterian Preschool/Day Care program is based on a set of strongly held beliefs:
We believe that each child is a unique individual. We are sensitive to their social emotional intellectual and physical needs. We provide developmentally appropriate programs that focus on the process of learning. We encourage not just learning but the love of learning.
We believe in providing a physical environment that is safe clean healthy and designed for children. Classrooms are arranged to offer challenging play and learning choices at a range of developmental levels. Children are offered the opportunity to explore to experience and most importantly — to succeed.
We believe the strength of our program lies in the dedication of our teaching staff and the support of First Presbyterian Church. We support our teachers with training resources and the freedom to create a unique learning experience for children. Our teachers create a caring and nurturing atmosphere while building the childs self-confidence and self-esteem.
We believe in positive discipline. We establish consistent age appropriate limits to help children function in their world. Our program is designed to foster in children a sense of independence and responsibility. It is our desire to strengthen each childs own cultural identity while instilling a respect for others who may be different.
We believe parents are the most significant adults in a childs life. We strive to create a mutual respect between parents and teachers; a partnership for the benefit of the child. We encourage daily communication between parents and staff. Our doors are open to parents at all times.
