Kindergarten Program

 General Information: Our kindergarten curriculum is developmentally appropriate providing for all areas of a child’s development: spiritual, physical, emotional, social, and cognitive through an integrated approach. The learning activities and materials are concrete, real, and relevant to the lives of our young children. A variety of individual, small group, and large group activities are incorporated into the daily program. Our classroom environment provides opportunity for children to learn through active exploration and interaction with adults, other children and materials. Our Early Childhood program recognizes that play is an important avenue for learning. Academics are incorporated into unit themes of study. This enables the children to receive an integrated experience that enhances thinking skills and creativity rather than exclusively promoting the rote memorization of facts. Daily activities include circle time, which includes calendar time, pledges to the American flag, the Christian Flag and to the Bible. Center times incorporate math and language arts activities as well as our thematic units. Enrichment activities include art, music, PE, library and STEM. 

 Bible Christian Schools International is the Bible curriculum used in the kindergarten, and it focuses on Bible stories from creation to the ascension. Through these stories we emphasize character traits and the study of missions. We strive to instill in the children character traits that are basic to a Christian life. There is an emphasis on worldwide missions throughout the year. Our kindergarten classes have a special unit of learning about other cultures. Weekly memory verses, character traits study, chapel, music and prayer are an integral part of our Bible curriculum.
