Messiah Lutheran Preschool was founded in 2003 to nurture children's spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, and emotional development.
We seek to demonstrate Jesus's redeeming love through the instruction of and the care for our students. Messiah Lutheran Preschool focuses on all domains of learning, including: Social Foundations, Physical Well-Being and Motor Development, Language and Literacy, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and The Arts. These domains of learning are integrated daily through play, teacher-directed activities, and child-initiated activities.
Biblical themes are an essential part of each day and are reinforced through daily prayers, songs, and activities.
Students also attend chapel with Messiah Lutheran Church's pastor each week.
