| University Christian School's Preschool is unlike the majority of preschools in Jacksonville. Our preschool program is not purely a developmental experience, but also includes academics, as well, thus meeting the needs of the whole child.
Preschoolers enjoy an array of academic studies including Bible, pre-reading and reading skills, writing skills, and the fundamentals of Math. Enrichment activities such as Spanish, art, library, and music, are also key to the program's success. A preschool child will learn through a center based activity schedule utilizing science, math, art, writing and hands on activities and iteraction play. Preschoolers attend either a full day or 1/2-day program, with field trips related to study throughout the year.
Special activities are held throughout the year to involve the entire family such as grandparent's day, father's sweetheart luncheon, mother's day tea to just name a few.
We feature a spacious playground area dedicated to the preschool and kindergarten population, which was completely remodeled over the summer of 2000. We also offer an extended childcare program both before and after school. We encourage and welcome parents to be involved in the classroom, thus rounding out the early-years experience at UCS. |
