In addition to teaching the basic ABCs & 123s, we also offer Spanish, Cooking, Science, Gym, Computer Lab, fun field trips and more.

We have had students from many different religious backgrounds and are open to anyone who would like their child to attend. Our curriculum is faith-based, however, we do not teach doctrinal beliefs. We teach about the love of God and how we should treat others the way God would want us to treat them.
