- What makes us unique!
Our Redeemer Nursery School program teaches children about the world around us and who made it. The children learn not only that God made the world and everything in it, but also God sent His Son Jesus to redeem the world. We teach weekly themes involving the earth, space, animals, people, feelings, etc. as well as monthly biblical themes such as Creation, Noah’s Ark, Moses, Zacchius, and Jesus’ parables. Opening, closing, and snack prayers are part of our daily program. Our pastor teaches a weekly lesson coordinating with our themes. We believe God should be a part of our daily lives and we must always remember it is Jesus who makes us the unique children of God.

- Come learn with us!
- For many children, preschool is a child’s first experience outside the family setting. We want your child to be in a safe, Christian, and happy environment. We keep families involved through a weekly newsletter, monthly calendar, and yearly theme calendar. We have various family activities planned such as a Christmas Service , a Harvest party, a valentines breakfast, open houses, etc. We also keep track of your child’s progress though a bi-yearly progress report with optional conferences. Parents are always invited to visit the classroom, chaperone field trips or come during visitor days when fireman and other community helpers come to teach the children.
