Our caring staff have been chosen for their dedicated love of the Lord and their desire to educate young children. We believe that each child is a precious gift from God and we strive to meet each child's needs spiritually, emotionally and academically. Within our nurturing environment, your child is able to explore God's world and develop their individual gifts and abilities.

Focus at Polka Dot Garden Preschool

We have developed a unique two-year curriculum which allows 3 and 4 year old children to participate in our program for one or two years.

Our preschool offers your child an opportunity to learn about God and His world through Bible stories, art, language, science, motor skill activities, and thematic units. Teachers use pictures, movement, activities, music, and games to assist your child on their learning journey.

Our curricular goals emphasize the following areas:

  • Artistic expression
  • Bible
  • Language development
  • Large and fine motor skills
  • Math readiness
  • Reading readiness
  • Science
  • Self-help skills
  • Social and emotional development
