Trinity Preschool
Trinity
Pre-school, a non-profit, non-denominational school, was
established as a mission of the Trinity Church in 1964 to
meet the needs of a growing community. In response to the
needs of families, Trinity Pre-school has developed programs
for Threes, Fours and Fives. Optional programs have also
been added to accommodate a variety of family lifestyles.
Trinity
Pre-school is committed to providing a warm, stimulating
environment for young children in accordance with the standards
for developmentally appropriate practice set forth by the
National
Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
Trinity Pre-school
provides a safe, nurturing environment that promotes physical,
social, emotional, and cognitive development of young children
while responding to the needs of families. We recognize
the importance of applying knowledge of child development
to program practices, while respecting and responding to
the uniqueness of each child. We strive to insure that all
programs follow the NAEYC guidelines for developmentally
appropriate practice.
The
Curriculum at Trinity Pre-school presents an integrated,
process-oriented, thematic approach with the emphasis on
children's literature. Activities are based on weekly/monthly
themes which combine language, math, science, music, art
and cooking related experiences. The children enjoy listening
to stories through books and story telling techniques. They
are also offered open ended activities based upon the stories
in conjunction with the chosen theme. There are many learning
opportunities for the children in the interest areas they
visit each day.
Trinity Preschool
is accredited by the National Association for the Education
of Young Children (NAEYC). NAEYC accreditation is a rigorous,
voluntary process by which early childhood programs demonstrate
that they meet national standards of excellance. The heart
of NAEYC accreditaion focuses on the child's total experiance
at the school. The process considers all aspects of the
program including health and safety, staffing and staff
qualifications and the physical environment. The greatest
emphasis is on the children's relationships with the staff
and how the program helps each child grow and learn and
intellecually, physically, socially, and emotionally.
