Key Benefits

4 Year Old Program
Academically Oriented / Kindergarten Readiness
Our four year old preschool program is focused on Kindergarten Readiness.  We pay special attention to the requirements for
Kindergarten, established according to the PA State Standards.  Our students will learn the alphabet and their appropriate
phonemes, basic math skills, how to cut and write, along with many other basic skills.  They will participate in exploring the world
around them in a safe and structured environment. 
 
Christ-centered Curriculum
All of our programs, including the four year old program is centered upon Christ.  We, as teachers, believe our students are
special gifts from God, equally valuable creations; thus, we incorporate God in as much classroom instruction as possible.  We
also have a designated half hour for Chapel time, every other week.  Taught through Bible stories and songs, major themes
highlighted are: God's love, perfection and forgiveness, our uniqueness in how He created us, God's concern about each of us
and our emotions, having thankful hearts, allowing God to use us even though we are small, Christ's death, burial and
resurrection and much more!  The curriculum is purchased through ACSI, the Association of Christian Schools International.
 
Kindergarten Screenings
In late winter, our four year old program, as well as our transition program, participate in the DIBELS Initial Sound Fluency
screening to help us determine students' weak areas and better prepare them for Kindergarten.  Before the conclusion of our
program, we conduct Kindergarten Screenings to recommend our transition program, Kindergarten, or any other type of
supplementary intervention.
