GRACE Early Education CENTER
Welcome to Grace, where we provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for children from six weeks to five years old. Our programs are designed to promote physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual growth, laying the foundation for lifelong learning and development.
We offer a range of programs that cater to the specific needs and interests of each child, from our Infant Program to our Pre-K Program. Our experienced and compassionate teachers provide individualized attention and care to help each child reach their full potential.
Infant Program
All of the youngest infants are welcomed to Grace with a soft baby blanket made by the Grace Lutheran Church Quilters group. A fully trained staff provides that special nurturing care so important at this stage of life. Infants will eat, sleep, and play in a clean and sanitized environment. Bottle-fed babies are held and rocked and those eating solid food are safely strapped into toddler feeding tables where they are assisted in learning to feed themselves. Children get restful sleep in state-approved cribs in a dimly lit, quiet environment, where soothing music is played. The older infants are gradually transitioned from cribs to mats, preparing them for the Toddler class.
Toddler Program
The Toddler Group is welcomed into the cheerful, spacious classroom by dedicated teachers. Each child’s belongings are stowed in an individual cubby. Toddlers experience Circle Time where learning is fun. They enjoy snacks twice a day and rest time in a quiet soothing environment. Recess is provided in the large fenced-in playground or the full-sized gymnasium.
Two-Year-Old Program
The two-year-old children begin their faith-based curriculum that features a traditional approach to teaching and learning with plenty of hands-on activities.
This curriculum turns playtime into learning time, laying a strong academic foundation that prepares each child for the next level of the educational journey.
The two-year-old education program is taught from a Christian worldview, planting seeds of faith in children all through the year. Our age-appropriate curriculum for preschool takes into consideration the differences in motor skills and cognitive abilities.
Three-Year-Old Program
Our Three-Year-Olds will explore time management, personal responsibility, self-awareness, independence and social responsibility through our faith based traditional curriculum. They will learn to recognize numbers and colors and begin expanding their literary skills. The Three-Year-Old program incorporates the latest STEAM(Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) education, ensuring a rich and engaging experience for every child. Children begin attending weekly chapel with Pastor Diane.
Pre-K Program
The Grace preschool program for Pre-K serves as a bridge between a preschool experience and kindergarten. Pre-K children become serious learners while socializing and having fun.
The classroom experience is a bit more structured as they are offered many opportunities for both social, intellectual, and spiritual growth. Blending traditional learning with the latest STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) education, ensuring a rich and engaging experience for every child.
