Objectives

The goals of St. John's Lutheran Preschool are threefold:

  1.  Teach each child that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to this earth to give His life to save sinners.
  2. Develop the God-given talents and abilities of each child and encourage them to grow spiritually, intellectually, and emotionally.
  3. Ensure each child is ready for kindergarten through the use of a developmental program consisting of 
  • Science through experiments that allow students to explore the world around them through their 5 senses.
  • Music by integrating concepts like rhythm, tempo, sounds, and movement.
  • Art and crafts to explore creativity while learning about shapes, color, and spatial recognition.
  • Social Studies and monthly themes to learn more about the world around us and develop our socio-emotional learning.
  • Math Readiness in learning both our numbers and concepts like sequencing, order, and grouping.
  • Language Arts in learning about letter recognition, letter sounds, and beginning stages of reading comprehension.
  • Physical Education both on the playground and in the gym while being active.
  • Bible Stories and learning more about how God cares for us, save us, and sustains us through every day.
