Early Childhood

In our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten programs, students experience the joy and excitement of an exceptional educational program which develops their abilities, talents, and character to impact the world for the Lord.

Children grow and learn in a Christ-centered, loving, and supportive environment. Teachers nurture the spiritual, intellectual, physical, and social development of each child. The classroom is an active, vibrant atmosphere where learning is fun and students freely interact, explore and discover as they grow in their knowledge of God, themselves, and their world. Children are provided with developmentally appropriate experiences which are stimulating and challenging and foster each child's God-given potential. Children enjoy an array of activities centered on: Bible, reading readiness, reading and writing skills, mathematics, science and social studies. Our program also includes: library, art, music, and physical education.

The Word of God is the foundation for all learning. Understanding that children learn best by doing, our hands-on curriculum is a balance of teacher-directed and child-initiated activities designed to meet the needs of individual learning styles. The curriculum provides a perfect balance of learning and play while stimulating academic achievement, Christian character, and a biblical worldview.

DC offers full and half day kindergarten classes as well as five full-day, five half-day, and three full-day(Mon./Tues./Wed.) Pre-Kindergarten.

Our curriculum is in alignment with the PA Department of Education Early Learning Standards.
