Pre-Kindergarten, A Weekday Program for 3 and 4 Year Olds
Our Pre-Kindergarten Program offers an age-appropriate curriculum in a loving, caring Christian environment. Opportunities are provided for children to learn through "hands-on" activities in which they develop at their own pace. Our program touches on all aspects of a child's development: cognitive, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual.
We partner with parents to help their children learn and grow. Our goal is to provide opportunities to develop each child's potential. It is our hope that every child will experience the fun and joy of learning here at FUMC Pre-Kindergarten.
We reach out to students for whom English is a second language. We invite those in our community for whom English is their second language to consider sending your children here.
If you have recently moved to Washington, please call the church, 706-678-7116, to enroll your child. We offer one class for 3 and 4 year olds with spaces for 24 children. You may choose either a 3-Day or a 5-Day option in that class. 3-Day students attend Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and 5-Day students attend Monday through Friday. School hours are 9:00 AM - 12:00 Noon. We follow the local school calendar regarding holidays. To be eligible, children must be 3 by September 1, 2010, and must be potty trained before school begins. We must have a current Immunization Form before your child can begin school.
