Beginnings Preschool

Our School

Bowling Green Baptist Church offers an innovative preschool for rising 3- and 4-year-olds in our area. Beginnings preschool is a labor of love for our church as we strive to reach the community for Christ. We are blessed to provide this learning opportunity for children in our community.

Utilizing play-based, interactive units of learning, our teachers will use their educational background to create a learning environment that will be active, developmentally appropriate, and, of course, lots of fun! Enriching and wholesome activities will keep your little ones quite busy and happily engaged.

Our preschool does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, national origin, religion, or sex, or on the basis of physical and/or mental handicap.

Enrollment is open to children who will be three years old by September 30 and children who will be four years old by September 30. Preschool begins the week of Labor Day and ends the Friday before Memorial Day.

Vision

At Beginnings Preschool, we see each child as an individual with his/ her own strengths and needs. Our staff will provide a safe and nurturing environment to encourage exploration and creativity!

Beginnings Preschool is here to prepare your child not only for entrance into kindergarten when that time comes, but also to help your child welcome the love of Christ and understand His role in our lives. Two beginnings under one roof!

Curriculum

We use themed units to address all areas of development. In addition, we incorporate Bible stories and concepts to our daily activities.

Social: We help children feel comfortable in school, trust their new environment, make friends, and feel they belong and are a part of the group.

Emotional: We help children experience pride and self-confidence, develop independence and self-control, and have a positive attitude toward life.

Cognitive: We assist children in becoming confident learners by letting them try out their own ideas and experience success and by helping them acquire learning skills such as the ability to solve problems, ask questions, and use words to describe their ideas, observations, and feelings.

Physical: We help children increase their gross and fine motor skills and feel confident about what their bodies can do. And most importantly, Spiritual: We guide children to the love of Christ.
