Eastminster Presbyterian Church has been active in making this church a safer place to be for everyone who enters.
This has been done by increasing the number of staff in the center making it more feasible for us to provide educational opportunities for our children.
The main reason for the success of the Day School is our professional teachers and staff who persistently strive for quality, and for our Parent’s Organization who are very involved throughout the year.
We are so blessed to have one of the best staff/parent teams possible.
