Music Box Class for Day School Participants
Philosophy
The Day School enjoys a long history of providing quality learning experiences for the children of the community. The school began in 1955 as a kindergarten. Since that time, the program has grown into a preschool that enrolls more than two hundred children each year. As an extension of the total ministry of the church, the Day School offers children the opportunity to learn through play in a secure Christian environment. Emphasis is on the physical, spiritual, emotional, social and intellectual development of the child. Children are provided opportunities to explore, discover, create and communicate as they participate in active learning experiences.
Curriculum
Developmentally-appropriate curriculum for each age group is taught by two teachers and is designed to build upon skills learned at the previous level. Children are encouraged to explore the world in which they live and, through a variety of activities, pursue the development of all their basic skills—from muscular coordination to language ability. Large motor skill development is especially important for young children. A fenced playground designed for preschoolers is available for all children during their physical education time. An indoor playroom is used on inclement weather days. Music and movement are also part of the classroom curriculum.
To enhance spiritual development, the children participate in a brief chapel time. The chapel service consists of a short lesson, songs, and a prayer.
All teachers receive 15 hours of training and continuing education in early childhood. Teachers in the Four Year Old and Primer Classes have teaching certification.
