LAYING A FOUNDATION

At Shepherd of the Desert Preschool, we believe a child’s first school experience is important because it lays the foundation for all future educational experiences. We believe each child is a unique gift from God. Our teaching approach involves the whole child and recognizes that every child develops at his or her own pace. Therefore, we strive to create classroom environments that are safe, loving, and rich in opportunities for learning and spiritual growth through age-appropriate, hands-on activities that maximize each student’s learning potential.
We’re for the Little Ones


SAFE ENVIRONMENT
We take extra care in providing a safe and loving environment for all our children — peace-of-mind for parents, and the perfect atmosphere to learn and grow as a child.

CHRIST-CENTERED
Our teachers and staff model God’s love as they teach, support and encourage the little ones who enter our classrooms each day.

INDIVIDUALLY PACED
We believe that each child is a unique gift of God. Our hands-on activities and research-based curriculum are tailored to each child’s individual age and development level.

PERSONAL ATTENTION
Our student/teacher ratios are kept well below state licensing regulations in order to provide the best care and opportunity for our students to succeed both academically and socially.
