The Importance of Early Childhood Education in a Christian Setting
Early childhood is a critical period for development. A Christian setting provides a nurturing environment where young children can grow academically, socially, and spiritually. This article focuses on the foundational years of education at Excelsior Prep, emphasizing the role of faith and values in early childhood development.
Faith and Values:
Incorporating faith into early education helps children understand God’s love and develop a strong moral compass. Stories, songs, and activities rooted in biblical teachings lay a solid foundation for lifelong faith. Our early childhood curriculum includes daily prayers, Bible stories, and faith-based songs that make learning about God fun and engaging.
Developmental Milestones:
Our early childhood program focuses on achieving key developmental milestones. Through play-based learning and structured activities, children develop essential skills in a supportive environment. We emphasize language development, motor skills, social interaction, and cognitive abilities, ensuring a well-rounded start to their education.
Parental Involvement:
We encourage parents to be actively involved in their child’s education. Family participation in school activities and events strengthens the home-school connection and reinforces shared values. Parents are invited to join us for special chapel services, classroom activities, and community service projects.
Awards and Achievements:
Our young students have shown remarkable achievements in early learning competitions and creative arts showcases. These accomplishments highlight the effectiveness of our early childhood program and the strong foundation it provides.
