Our program is carefully designed to meet each child's individual needs. We involve all our children in the learning process from the infant class through four year old learners. We believe that no child is too young to learn with developmentally appropriate activities. The content and experience offered vary according to the age of the children.

Lessons include activities to enhance skills in:
• Pre-and Beginning Reading
• Pre-and Beginning Math
• Nature & Science
• Arts & Crafts
• Fine and Gross Motor Skills
• Music & Dance
• Social Skills & Recreational Play

Our Curriculum
|
| |
We use the A BEKA Christian Curriculum to ensure that children grow up with a sound foundation in Christ and are taught the educational, social, developmental and behavioral skills necessary to be prepared to enter the school system as well as engage as active participants in their family and in the community.

Regular Daily Attendance is required
Regular Daily Attendance in our Preschool is a requirement as we are working with a rigorous A Beka Christian Curriculum that requires the students to have an active learning module that will prepare them for Kindergarten entry beginning at 2 years of age. Children must arrive to school no later than 9:30 a.m. in order to ensure children are tracking along with their teachers and peers and are able to stay abreast of the learning requirements for the daily and weekly lesson plan.
Children who miss several days of the curriculum may not be able to keep up with the learning concepts that are introduced in the lesson plan daily, and thereby may lose their placement as Great Beginnings' operates under a group care model.
We are serious about meeting the spiritual, educational and developmental milestones our children need to be successful in their academic and family/community at large. Families are challenged to come along side the teachers to reinforce the information and educational learning goals from the lesson plan and are provided with the weekly lesson plan each Monday.
