About Our Program . . .
At Westminster Preschool, we believe every child is a precious gift from God. We are committed to providing a program that will help prepare your child for life’s journey. Through enriching educational experiences in early childhood, your child will be empowered to reach his or her full potential as an adult.
Westminster Preschool is a nonprofit outreach program of Westminster Presbyterian Church (USA). Our curriculum is designed to provide a high quality program of early childhood education in a secure, nurturing Christian environment.
Westminster Preschool is staffed by experienced teachers who set a Christian example and take a positive approach to discipline. All teachers are certified in CPR and First Aid, and they keep their skills current by attending continuing education programs throughout the school year.
Our curriculum is specifically designed to meet your child’s social, emotional, physical, cognitive and spiritual needs. Classroom structure is based on the learning center concept as outlined by Creative Curriculum. A variety of resources are used to supplement our academic program, thus providing each child with a solid foundation of early learning skills. At Westminster Preschool, the following skills are emphasized:
Toddlers and Two’s are encouraged to learn through their own experience, trial and error, repetition, imitation and identification.
Teachers guide and encourage learning by ensuring that the environment is physically safe and emotionally supportive.
We offer inviting classrooms which encourage play, exploration and freedom of movement.
Positive interactions with Teachers and classmates are emphasized as an essential contribution to the quality of the child’s learning experiences.
Development of large and fine motor skills.
Academic skills including pre-reading, pre-writing, science and math concepts.
Music, movement and art.
Creative thinking and reasoning.
