DCS Preschool Program

At DuBois Christian Schools Preschool, children are nurtured and taught from a Biblical perspective. Music, Science, Art, Math, and Language Arts are all expressions of God’s creation. What a wonderful way to provide a child with a secure and stable beginning to his or her education! DCS Preschool is an early education program with a focus on developing the whole child:
 
bullet Spiritually
Biblical curriculum, prayer, and a Godly teacher provide a focus on God as our Creator and Savior.
 
bullet Academically
Hands-on learning activites for art, reading, computers, dramatic play, and more.
 
bullet Physically
Hands-on experience with clay, paints, crayons, building blocks, sand & water, and other educational interactive toys are part of developing each child’s gross & fine motor skills.
 
bullet Socially
Classroom experience and a well-supervised playtime are designed to help each child to develop a Godly sense of self and respect for others in the community.
