 Dear
Parents and Families,
On behalf of Bel Air Presbyterian Church and the Preschool
Committee, let me welcome you and your child to Bel Air
Presbyterian Church Preschool. We are thrilled you and
your family will be part of the Preschool and through
that association will also be connected to the church
family. We are looking forward to a year filled with fun
activities to share with your child as well as the entire
family.
Our purpose is to provide a safe, loving, nurturing environment
that preserves the experience of childhood through a carefully
planned Christian program. We provide a quality, developmental
curriculum that fosters the spiritual, social, emotional,
physical and cognitive growth of each child. Our curriculum
is designed to be emergent and meet the needs of the individual
child, to be "hands-on" and allow children to
learn through experience. Developmentally appropriate
programs are democratic: based on age appropriate learning,
challenging, motivating, but not stressful. We strive
to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills
and to promote a child’s self-esteem, which is an
important condition for later learning. We value and have
a commitment to excellence in Early Childhood Education
from our Teaching Staff, Director, Pastors and the Preschool
Committee. We seek to be on the leading edge of quality
in our field.
Here, in an environment of acceptance and love, your child
will grow in the nurture of God and encounter His grace
and love. Children come to Preschool and learn about how
God is personally involved in the world and in each of
their lives. Our commitment as a Staff and Preschool Committee
is to come alongside you as parents and to support your
role as you face the early years of your child’s
growth, development and education. This commitment extends
to you whether you are a member of Bel Air Church or not.
We seek to be available to you as parents in any way that
we are able.
The Parents'
Handbook is intended to acquaint you with our philosophy,
goals, policies and procedures. Please do not hesitate
to call me or any member of the staff at 818-990-6071
in order to help you grow with your child during this
exciting time of life.
We are so blessed to have you be a part of the Preschool
family and the church family as well. Please remember
us in prayer, as we are holding you and yours in our prayers
throughout the school year.
Warmly,
Andrea Petsche
Preschool Director |
