Early Childhood Center
Young children are naturally inquisitive and love to learn. They love to play, move, and engage with the world around them. Students in grades PK2-Kindergarten at DC participate in a Christ-centered education designed to help them develop skills and tools that will be vital in their academic, spiritual, and social lives.
DC’s Early Childhood Center provides a safe environment and learning community where young learners develop a sense of awe and wonder for God’s created world. This, in turn, fosters a lifelong love of learning.
The teachers at the ECC use Bible-centered curriculum materials coupled with play and academic rigor to introduce the wonder of God’s creation to our children, even at a very young age. We are so thankful for the ECC program at DC!
