Preschool Classes

for children ages 1.5 to 5

We believe children learn best through play and social interactions during their early childhood years. Through a wide variety of hands-on activities, such as music and movement, process art, dress up and dramatic play, gross motor play, stories, and more, children are exposed to a wide variety of concepts and skills.

 

All of our Calvary Preschool classes

run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. 

​

Afterschool care is offered M-Th from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

The Wayfinders

Offered M-F

Children must be 4.5 years old by October 1. 

​

This class is designed for children who are ready for advanced preparation before kindergarten.  Children who have summer or early fall birthdays benefit largely from this class. They may be eligible for kindergarten, but caregivers wish to give them the gift of time before enrolling them in elementary school. With a focus on critical thinking and problem-solving, students build proficiency in literacy, early math, and fine motor skills through writing, science experiments, and collaborative projects. Weekly enrichment classes include PE, Chapel, music, social studies, and STEM/STEAM for a robust and engaging curriculum.
