BCC Preschool
Baptist Center Preschool is a place where children experience God's love because they are loved and accepted, valued and celebrated! We want to partner with the family to introduce God's plan for the child and inspire a love for learning, as well as help them grow in their relationship with God and others.
JULY 10 - AUGUST 2, 2018
General Information
Baptist Center Church Preschool is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for 2-4 year old children. We strive to provide children with a variety of activities to participate in each day as well as allowing them to use their imagination while playing in centers with peers inside and out on our playground.
We are a Christian facility that exposes children to Jesus Christ by being Christian witnesses through our daily lives. Baptist Center Church Preschool is a member of NC Baptist Church Weekday Education Association. This allows us to network with other NC Baptist preschools and provides opportunities for staff development through training events approved by the NC Division of Child Development.
At Baptist Center Church Preschool, we begin each day with Chapel Time where we learn Bible stories, memorize scripture, say pledges, sing and have prayer time. We have weekly sessions that include Music, Creative Art, Physical Fitness and Story-time Adventure. We offer an environment that encourages development in social, academic, emotional, physical and spiritual growth.
Baptist Center Church Preschool operates Monday-Friday from 9:00am to 1:00pm. Our program runs from September through May and is available for children ages 2-4 years of age. We offer a 3 day program for two year old kids which meets weekly on Tuesday-Thursday. Three year old kids have the option to attend the 3 day program (Tuesday-Thursday) or the 4 day program (Monday-Thursday). The four year old kids have the option to attend a 5 day program (Monday-Friday or a 4 day program (Monday-Thursday).
