Philosophy

We are proud providers of Indiana’s voluntary child care rating and improvement system, Paths to QUALITY™. And the National Association for the Education of Young Children. 
We know that quality child care leads to brighter futures for all children, and since 1986, First Presbyterian Church Preschool Ministry strives to provide each child with a safe, warm, caring environment under the supervision of professional child care givers and educators. Each child is encouraged to explore through fine and large motor activities, music, games, story time and free play. Christian based and developmentally appropriate curricula and Foundations for Young Children to the Indiana Academic Standards are used with which to nurture their social and personal growth. PPM is also a C.L.A.S.S. school where curriculum is connected to the Multiple Intelligences, Life skills and Lifelong Guidelines.

Presbyterian Preschool is a ministry to the community and open to all children, regardless of race, nationality, financial status or religious belief. Financial scholarships are available, and CCDF (Childcare Development Funds) assistance OR On My Way PreK and scholarships are also available if applicable (submission of forms are required).
