3 and 4 Year Old Kindergarten
 

It is the privilege of the West Florida Christian School pre-school staff to direct the path of your children as they begin an "education journey" that will meet their individual needs, as well as challenge and prepare them for formal learning in the years to come. Our dedicated staff provides the love and expertise needed to successfully nurture children in the safe, secure environment provided at our school. The pre-school is an extension of your home in encouraging Biblical, moral, and character development. An important focus of WFCS is our academic program. Beginning in K-3 with the A Beka Curriculum, our students follow a structured day that will teach the students to recognize the letters of the alphabet and K-4 students to read words through phonics. They are also taught Bible memory verses, Bible stories, number recognition and addition, music, art, crafts, poetry, group interaction, children’s games, stage performance, health and safety rules, manners, and character training. Our strong academic readiness program has proven to be superior in preparing young children for success in their formal education years.

As we enter our fortieth year of ministering to pre-school children in the Sarasota area we invite you to come and visit our facilities. Join with us by enrolling your children to begin their "education journey" in the loving environment of West Florida Christian Pre-school Ministries.

Our K-3 students learn to recognize numbers, letters and colors. K-4 students begin reading words using phonics.  Preschool  students do their school work in the mornings learning Bible memory verses, Bible stories, addition, music, arts, crafts, poetry as well as health and safety rules, manners and stage performance. 

For information on our curriculum visit the A Beka web site at www.abeka.com.

In the afternoons our preschool students take naps or go home.  After nap time is playtime on the playground.

We strive to make preschool a positive experience for children.  We believe in positive reinforcement for good behavior.  We strive to reward children for their excellence through verbal praise, treasure box surprises, stickers, special privileges and award certificates.
