I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. 3 John 1:4
philosophy
Potter's Hand Preschool is a ministry of the Potter's Hand Bible Church and is based on the belief that all children are a gift from God and are created for a purpose. We believe children learn by doing, so we provide hands-on developmentally-appropriate learning experiences that encourage exploring and creating. Knowing each child and his or her specific needs is at the forefront of designing our program. We implement the curriculum in a way that propels children to enjoy learning while promoting confidence and self-esteem. We are committed to serving families in our community with a quality program that nourishes each child's spiritual, emotional, intellectual, physical, and social growth in a safe and fun environment. A partnership with parents is crucial to a child's educational success and therefore strong communication between teachers and parents is very important to us. We are devoted to modeling God's love in all that we do, teaching Christian principles, and nurturing a child's love for learning.
