Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it. 

Proverbs 22:6
 

Weekday Early Education

Weekday Early Education is committed to providing a Christian based, age-appropriate curriculum for 2 year old through 5 year old children with the goal of creating a warm, loving child centered atmosphere based on the needs and interests of this age level. Our program uses the “WEE LEARN CURRICULUM” which is published by LifeWay Press along with other supplemental materials. The daily activities provide for the child’s social, emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual development. Basic routines such as group time, organized free play, clean up, bathroom, snack, rest, and outdoor play are carried out each day to help the child develop a sense of regularity and security. Children participate in a variety of activities such as art, writing, books, home living, blocks, puzzles and manipulatives, nature, and music. The children also learn to take turns, share, plan, work, and play with others.

Hours: 9:00-11:45am

Ratios
The classes may be smaller, but will not exceed the following:
2 year olds - 12 children : 2 teachers
