Tiny Tots Preschool

Tiny Tots Preschool is designed to help each child learn with more joy, more meaning, more purpose, and more satisfaction so that they might make a smoother transition into elementary school. We hope to pave the way to successful learning, coupled with the sheer joy of discovering new and different concepts though reading, writing, oral language, listening, math, science, socialization, art, music and physical education. Tiny Tots is offered to three- and four-year olds and is based on the public school system entry birth dates. Four-year-olds attend for a half day on Monday, Wednesday and Friday or Monday through Friday. Three-year-olds attend on Tuesday and Thursday or Monday, Wednesday, Friday. You need not be a church member for your child to attend. For more information, contact Libby Meredith, director, at 366-8152.
