Our mission at Ascension Lutheran Preschool is to provide a Christian based educational outreach program dedicated to helping preschoolers grow intellectually, socially, emotionally, spiritually, and physically through creative hands-on learning experiences.
The objectives of Ascension Lutheran Preschool are:
Our philosophy is that God created each individual with unique gifts. It is our responsibility as early childhood educators to help each child realize his/her potential through encouragement, guidance, and Christian love.
Our aim is to create a setting where our children will become responsible human beings with an understanding of their connection to God and their community.
Our preschool curriculum is designed to instill in our children Christian values through Bible lessons, prayers, Christian songs, academic skills, and social relationships.
A new theme is introduced each month and units are built around the theme. This will give the children a variety of experiences in using small and large motor skills, music and movements, arts and crafts, academic centers, free-play, stories, and self-expression.
The variety of sessions promotes progressive learning experiences beginning with a first preschool encounter for the three year old to preparing for Kindergarten with the four year old.
