Welcome to Parkway Preschool
A ministry of Parkway Church on the Mountain
About our Preschool
Our purpose here at Parkway Preschool is to provide an enriching educational environment for young children ages 2-5 and their families; One that fosters a love of learning and a deep understanding that they are unique and deeply loved by God. We want each child to have a sense of accomplishment built upon their natural curiosity to learn and grow. Our desire is to create an environment that:
Is safe and nurturing
Enhance positive growth, development and self-esteem
Provide developmentally appropriate, stimulating and creative curricula
assist children in developing into happy, healthy, self-confident individuals
Our Philosophy
As a ministry of Parkway, our Weekday Preschool Program Leadership believes that early childhood development is huge in the future of our children's educational goals. The guiding principles that underscore our commitment to all young children are:
Young children learn and construct knowledge as a result of meaningful and purposeful experiences
Young children reach different levels of learning and develop at different times
Learning is both individual and social and takes place in a social/cultural context
PLAY is an integral part of learning
Skills and concepts are developed and enhanced through child-lead and Teacher-initiated activities
Print rich environments are necessary to facilitate literacy development
Families of young children are essential partners in the educational process... YOU are your child's 1st teacher
