About Us

  The Lambs Christian Preschool began in 1988 as a ministry of the Grace Bible Fellowship Church.  Our purpose is to provide an early childhood education with a Christ- centered atmosphere at a time when growth is rapid and the child is impressionable.  We take our directive from the Word of God that instructs us to "feed My lambs," and, to "train up a child in the way he should go."  Our fervent desire and prayer are "to hear that our children are walking in the truth." (III John 4)

  Offering three and four year old classes, the Preschool seeks to promote the knowledge of God as Creator and Jesus Christ as Savior; nurture the development of Christian values; foster healthy mental, physical, emotional and social growth in a Christian atmosphere; and, provide an alternative to secular education for the Grace Church family and neighborhood.

  Our curriculum includes an introduction to letters, phonics, numbers, science, social studies, and computers. We encourage you to contribute ideas, share concerns, and discuss with us the joys of guiding your young child.

  A close home-school relationship is always beneficial to the children. Parents are always welcome to join us during our class time. We encourage participation by inviting parents to join us on field trips and during special classroom activities.

ABEKA curriculum is used for Phonics and Math. This is a tenative schedule for each day. In the beginning of the school term the times are adjusted according to the children's attention spans and ages. As the year progresses, less time is spent in pre-session activities and social interaction, and more time is dedicated to working with circle time or in small groups involved in academic pursuits. This schedule is for both classes, but the time allotments are adjusted differently for each class and change as the children grow and mature.
