OUR PHILOSOPHY The administration, faculty, and staff at Peace Lutheran School believe that our relationship with children is established in Christ. “Whoever welcomes one of these little ones in My name welcomes Me”. (Mark 9:37) We believe education is valuable and that the initial educational experiences of a child contribute immeasurably to his or her future successes. “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it. (Proverbs 22:6) Young children are unique creations of God.
In order to best meet the needs of the children enrolled in the early childhood program at Peace Lutheran School, we are committed to the following:
Providing a Christ-centered curriculum whereby children will daily learn about Jesus and His love
Creating a safe and secure environment in which young children will experience enjoyment and success as activities are planned to match the ages of the children and their individual levels of development.
Developing the children’s independence and ability to think for themselves while instilling a strong foundation for living in this world and contributing to society using their unique abilities and God’s gifts to the fullest.
Nurturing the development of the whole child in order that each child might develop his/her full potential spiritually, intellectually, physically, socially, emotionally, and creatively.
Providing children with the opportunities to create, explore, and discover in their own individual and unique way.
Affirming the importance of play as children’s work. Recognizing each child’s unique qualities and fostering healthy self-esteem in order that each child might become all that God created him/her to be.
The kindergarten class published a book and had a mini gala celebration! The book was dedicated to three Peace Lutheran School Volunteers. Two of three of our wonderful volunteers are pictured here.
