Rainbow Christian Preschool & Kindergarten opened its doors in September 1987 with six children, one part-time director, one teacher, one assistant, and a commitment to offer working parents a safe and loving place to entrust their children.
Our curriculum encourages the students to develop their thinking skills by providing a variety of activities and learning centers which are rotated or changed periodically throughout the year, often focusing on a theme.
Regular centers include sensory table, blocks, dramatic play, computer, math games and manipulatives, listening center, writing and art materials, puzzles, easels, and various table toys.
