Philosophy/Mission

  • First United Methodist Preschool commits to educational excellence in conjunction with Biblical values.
  • Our philosophy is based on the belief that learning is fun and is achieved through exposure, discovery and creativity.
  • Our curriculum is geared to the needs, abilities and everyday tasks of the youth child; intellectually, socially, emotionally, physically and spiritually.
  • Our goal is that each child develops a love for God, a greater understanding of His attributes as He develops faith in them and maximal growth in independence, self esteem and academic skills.
