Educational Philosophy
At Lakewood Christian Preschool we believe that children learn best in an environment that is safe and loving, where they can initiate meaningful activities at their own pace supported by their teachers, all in an atmosphere of play. This process of development and learning influences the whole child.
PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT
Provide activities that help develop both large (legs, arms, back) and small (fingers, eyes) muscle control. These physical activities build neurological pathways in the brain that are necessary before the child can successfully proceed to the higher levels of formal education.SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
Provide activities (dramatic play, taking turns, conversation) that help children make sense of the world around them and learn to care for, cooperate and problem solve with others.EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Guide and encourage children through activities and situations that help develop confidence, self-help skills and a better understanding of self, family and culture.INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT
Working with each individual child’s strengths and needs, provide activities that promote a life long love of learning and encourage creativity, curiosity, and their emerging skills in literacy, language, investigation and math.SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT
Increasing a child’s understanding of God and His love for them. In simple, age appropriate ways through Bible stories, prayer, the Christian example of the teachers and by teaching character traits (kindness, obedience, forgiveness) this is a daily part of our curriculum.
Mission
The purpose of Lakewood Christian Schools is the same as Arbor Road Church; To know God and make Him known. The mission of Lakewood Christian Schools is to assist parents in the maturing of their children by providing a Christ-centered education emphasizing academic excellence that prepares students to stand firm in their faith in Jesus Christ, and be productive, responsible citizens at home, at church and in our community. The Preschool, Elementary, Middle School, and Academy will work together to provide a distinct experience for each developmental stage while remaining cohesive to serve families with children from two years and 9 months old to twelfth grade.
Lakewood Christian Preschool was established out of a genuine love and concern for young children and a strong belief in the importance of the family in the growth and development of children.
