PreSchool & PreK
PreSchool & PreK
Delighting in wonder while exploring God’s creation.
PreSchool and PreK are where it all begins. Our youngest Defenders are a part of our Grammar school and are just being introduced to discovering the world God has created and delighting in wonder while doing so. Our teachers nurture a safe, joyous learning environment where students are exposed to math, science, language, music, art and more.
Through teacher-led instruction, students engage with their peers, experience wonder, revel in creative play, and deepen their natural curiosity, all while learning to become a student.
Parent Partnership
Throughout their schooling, parents play an active part in their child’s education. During these youngest years, parents will participate in classroom activities such as our annual Teddy Bear Picnic, the Thanksgiving Feast of Blessings, Character ROCKS Presentations, and more!
During PreSchool, students will not have assignments during School@Home days giving parents an opportunity to explore interests and passions with their child. In PreK, parents can expect 1-2 hours of work during home days, still leaving ample time for delight and wonder.
Curriculum Overview
In the Grammar School, basic factual content and rules—the “grammar”—of each subject is mastered. The curricular emphasis during these years is on learning basic facts and figures during a time when our youngest Defenders love to memorize.
