You do not have to be a Lutheran to attend a Lutheran school.
Holy Cross Christian preschool is a developmental Christian preschool dedicated to the belief that children thrive in an environment where Jesus is the lead teacher. Our developmental approach allows children to LOOK, touch, explore, smell, manipulate, experiment, and sometimes even taste things that come their way. Getting to know about their world should be a delightful and exciting discovery. Our goal is to help children learn the joy of finding out about 'stuff'! Our program is rich in all the things children are hungry to learn. Our learning units are exciting explorations of the world and people around them. The teachers love questions even if they do not know why God made the color red! Maybe God made the color red because it makes children smile.

Curriculum includes: Bible songs and stories, colors, letters, shapes, numbers, science, social studies, Chapel Time, Second Step, Community Workers, Christian Virtue Art, music, Creative Movement, stories, some that we read and some that we write! And...lots, lots more! We are a developmental, hands-on, language-rich, music-infused preschool where art and literature abound in a happy, friendly environment.
Holy Cross preschool is designed to mesh appropriate materials and equipment with the developmental needs of children as they gain mastery over the important foundation skills that are the forerunner to reading, writing, and arithmetic.
Holy Cross Lutheran Preschool - Mission Statement
The mission of Holy Cross Lutheran Preschool is to, in the name of God the Father and under the direction of the Holy Spirit, offer a developmental Christian and pre-kindergarten program dedicated to sharing the love and salvation offered by Jesus Christ, that those entrusted to our care take up the cross and become ambassadors of Christ.
Holy Cross Lutheran Preschool - Philosophical Statement
We are a Christian preschool dedicated to the growth and development of the whole child. Because the development of self-concept begins at birth, respect for each child's individuality is crucial so that they may come to know they are a unique and special part of God's creation. It is the desire of our staff that your child's contact with our school is a positive one. Our goal is to help the children of Holy Cross Lutheran Preschool feel safe, secure, and loved, that they may come to know the love and redemption of Jesus Christ. We are dedicated to work with families to help form a comfortable transition between home and school.
We will tell the children about the Triune God and their Savior Jesus Christ. We will use stories from the Bible to teach the children about the wonders of their world and how God planned for us to live in a loving relationship with Him and the people around us. We will make special use of the Word of God in our science studies as we talk about God as the Creator, and in our social studies as we talk about how we are all special in His eyes. We will give thanks to God each day before we eat and pray for those classmates who are ill.
