Our experienced educators are dedicated to fostering a love of learning in every child.
The objective of the program is to expose a child to a fun enriching learning environment. The following development areas are emphasized.
Through group and individual experiences, children develop abilities and positive attitudes toward themselves and their peers. Each child is given an opportunity to explore the mysteries of nature, to experiment with materials, to communicate with adults and other peers, and to think creatively in problem-solving situations.
- Social and Emotional Development
- Gross and Fine Motor Development
- Cognitive Development
- Receptive and Expressive Language Development
- Visual and Auditory Development
Our top priority is to provide a safe, welcoming, and nurturing space where your child can thrive.
We follow Illinois State Standards for learning.
We maintain low student-to-teacher rations to ensure personalized attention and support for each child.
Children of all faiths are welcome and find their beliefs respected. The meaning of God’s love for all persons is an integral part of the program. No doctrines are presented which would need to be “unlearned” by a child of any faith.
Evangelical United Church of Christ’s Peppermint Preschool for the young years offers an excellent preschool program for children three and four years of age. Children need to be three by September 1st to register for the program.
