Preschool Academic Program

Curriculum:

Christ the Cornerstone Preschool was established to provide a balanced program of educational experience nurturing Christian environment for children 3 years of age and up. Recognizing the importance of balanced growth, our staff will provide the opportunity for intellectual, emotional, physical, creative, social and spiritual development of the child. The Boardof Christian Education has chosen the Abeka Christian curriculum and the Concordia religion series to achieve these goals.  

Childhood is a time for fun, but also a time for learning. It is a time for developing new relationships with the world and the people in it, for exploring, and becoming independent, and meeting a whole range of new challenges. Every child is given the opportunity to develop his/her abilities in the same measure as the Lord has blessed him/her. At Christ the Cornerstone Preschool, early Christian Education makes a difference.

Educational Goals:

The goals of Christ the Cornerstone Preschool are to encourage children to:

• Interact with peers and adults in a respectful manner
• Develop readiness skills in reading, writing, science and math concepts
• Develop small and large motor skills
• Write their names using upper and lower case letters
• Become familiar with the alphabet and consonant sounds
• Participate in dramatic, free, imaginative and organized play
• Develop appreciation of the arts through singing, art processes, story-telling, circle time and creative movement.

Progress Reports:

Preschool children will receive evaluations during the year. A progress report will be sent home towards the end of the school year for the Pre-Kindergarten students entering Kindergarten the following school year.
