Day School (2 & 3 year Olds)

Mission

The Day School is a vital part of Elizabethtown Christian Academy and has a longstanding tradition of excellence in early childhood education. We value each child and the potential he or she holds. We strive to provide a loving and encouraging environment where each child can cultivate his or her talents, skills, and learning. In order to achieve this, our class sizes are limited to allow closer and more frequent interaction between the teacher and the child.

Goals

  • Encourage children to investigate and collaborate as they encounter new challenges
  • Use appropriate methods allowing our students to gain early understanding in many areas that will prepare them for future learning. 
  • Provide young learners with a developmentally-based balance of nurture, structure, and independence.
  • Provide children with Biblical scripture, stories, and prayer to help them develop their Christian faith.
  • Connect with Christ and helping to connect parents, children, and church to each other.
