Our Preschool

OUR PHILOSOPHY

The purpose of Saratoga Presbyterian Preschool is to provide young children with a positive school experience in a warm and supportive Christian environment. Our school was founded through the initiative of the Saratoga Presbyterian Church and has the church's continuing support in the embodiment of this goal. We stimulate the child's innate desire to learn by providing age appropriate experiences for the development of the whole child: emotional, social, cognitive and physical. By providing well rounded learning opportunities in an environment in which the child feels safe and secure to investigate without criticism, the child will make steps in fulfilling his or her own potential.

The development of self-confidence and self-esteem are essential to the well being of all children. Therefore, the programs at Saratoga Presbyterian Preschool are designed to strengthen and reinforce the child's feelings of success through the exercise of choices and the appreciation of each person's uniqueness. The teachers and other staff members are dedicated to the care and nurturing of each child. Success is built upon success to provide a sound foundation the child can continually build upon. Repetition and variations of favorite activities help the child gain and retain concepts for later problem solving.
