Preschool Academics

Curriculum

The curriculum for three-year-old children is based on developing readiness skills. They  also learn about letters and numbers in a fun but educational way.

The program for the four and five-year-old children includes phonics, numbers, and writing.  All classes have Bible stories and activities as well as memory verses.

Social skills, large and small motor coordination, and self-concept are fostered in various activities such as stories, music, art projects, sharing time, games, etc.

Learning Expectations

Even though uniforms and textbooks vary from grade to grade, there is a core set of values which FCS attempts to instill into the life of every student enrolled at the school.
