Program Objective
Sunflowers Christian Preschool will provide an opportunity for your child to develop a positive self-image through an awareness of Christ in their world. Social skills will develop through interaction with peers and teachers. The teachers will provide activities that will develop fine and gross motor skills necessary for more formalized schooling.
Discipline Policy
Children will be encouraged to develop a sense of self-control, cooperation, and respect for others. Positive reinforcement will be given by the staff in recognition of these qualities. Guidelines for behavior in school will be explained and reinforced.
Our Facility
We are fortunate to have a wonderful, supportive building and staff at our constant disposal. In addition to our bright, colorful, clean room we have a kitchen, recreation hall, library, and outdoor courtyards for our use.

We look forward to learning and growing with your family.
