Statement of Purpose
We are a non-profit ministry of Faith Baptist Church. Our Little Badger Christian Preschool program is operated under the supervision of Jan Gnacinski, Administrator/Center Director. The governing body is Faith Baptist Church, under the Administration of Pastor Dean Noonan, Sr. It is seen as an integral part of the church’s mission to the community.
Preschool Program
The preschool program aims to provide a Christian setting for informal teaching experiences, teacher-directed activities, and free play. The child’s needs and abilities serve as the focus for the structure of the readiness program. Through the daily schedule and interaction with Christian adults and other children, physical skills will be strengthened. The social behavior will be practiced, emotional balance will be sought, intellectual concepts will be formulated, and Christian values will be internalized.
We will feature the ABC Mouse Christian curriculum, using books, tablets and materials for ages 2-5. Our curriculum and learning approaches are very beneficial.
