At Plumtree Preschool, we believe every child is a unique and precious gift from God.
We are a Christian preschool where your child can come from two to five days per week, ages 2.9-5 years. Each child will learn skills in math, science and language arts at their own level of development and enjoy Bible stories and faith lessons. Outdoor play and movement activities in our spacious gym will also be included.
Our Mission and Philosophy
All children deserve our respect and families need to be supported and nurtured.
Each child is a gift from God.
We believe in having a routine that includes free time to learn through play and open ended activities, which helps to develop not only good social skills but language and cognitive development as well.
We believe that children learn through example. Through staff role modeling, the children will learn how to treat each other with kindness, concern, and empathy.
Small group activities will help inspire the love and interest of acquiring knowledge.
Through fun in learning, we hope to help children accept themselves as God’s beautiful child with something wonderful to offer the world.
