Education Philosophy

St. Paul’s Lutheran Preschool is firmly committed to promoting the healthy development of each child in our school. We take a ‘global’ approach to learning, and focus on the growth of the whole child. We know that the physical, moral, emotional, cognitive, and social development of each and every child are of equal importance.
    Our primary goal in working with the children is to promote positive self esteem. Every child needs to feel loved and secure, and to feel comfortable with the adults, children, and surroundings. Our job is to provide a safe, secure, and Christian environment in which every child can explore and learn with the support and guidance of a caring adult.
    Our approach to learning stresses growth in the following areas: fine motor skill, social and emotional maturity, eye-hand coordination, gross motor skills, independence, task completion, attention span, and listening skills. These skill areas lay groundwork for learning that will last a lifetime, and promote educational success.
   St. Paul’s Lutheran Preschool is committed to helping each child fulfill his or her potential, and grow to be a healthy, secure, and loving individual.
