GRACE PRESCHOOL
The purpose and mission of Grace Preschool is to provide a positive Christian environment where children have the opportunity to develop a positive self-concept through play and socialization. Teachers meet students where they are and work with small groups on a consistent basis. Children develop an awareness of God's loving care as our Heavenly Father.
