Carmel Presbyterian Weekday School
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it”
Mission:
The Weekday School at Carmel Presbyterian Church supports the developmental needs and fosters the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and experiential growth of each child in our program. We provide an environment that is nurturing, challenging, and engaging to lay a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
true north:
Carmel Presbyterian Weekday School envisions a ministry where:
Children THRIVE both spiritually and developmentally.
Children DEVELOP both physically and emotionally.
Children GROW in faith and discipleship.
Children BEGIN a lifelong love of learning.
Philosophy:
Each child's uniqueness is nurtured by our Christian staff in a warm, child-centered environment for toddlers and preschoolers. We support their development with stimulating spaces that foster growth through art, play, music, drama, nature, and storytelling, while teaching basic concepts like colors and numbers. Hands-on activities and creative play are central to learning. Our program provides a safe space for exploration, believing each child is a creation of God, deserving love and support. We aim to develop confident, well-rounded preschoolers ready to learn. We encourage school-home cooperation and welcome questions, suggestions, and visits.
