At First Presbyterian Church Weekday School, we believe children learn best through relationships, play, curiosity, and meaningful experiences. Inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy and grounded in Christian values, our teachers thoughtfully prepare environments that invite children to wonder, investigate, create, collaborate, and grow.

​

Rather than following a traditional theme-based curriculum, our classrooms evolve from children's interests and questions. Teachers observe carefully, listen intentionally, and extend learning through engaging invitations, open-ended materials, literature, nature, art, music, movement, and faith.

​

Children experience opportunities to:

• Build meaningful relationships

• Develop early literacy and mathematical thinking

• Explore science and the natural world

• Express creativity through art, music, dramatic play, and loose parts

• Strengthen fine and gross motor skills

• Develop independence and problem-solving skills

• Participate in weekly Chapel experiences

• Enjoy outdoor exploration and play every day whenever possible
