Kindergarten Philosophy

Highland Park Kindergarten operates as a part of the educational ministry of the church and as a service to the community. The Kindergarten Committee and the teachers work together to offer a wide variety of learning experiences for the children. We strive to nurture all children in a loving Christian environment where their cognitive, physical, social, emotional, and spirtual needs are met as they take their first educational step in preparation for life.
