First Presbyterian Christian Preschool
The Mission of First Presbyterian Christian Preschool is to provide a Christ-centered atmosphere where children will know that God loves them and they will experience a variety of opportunities which will develop a firm foundation for future learning.
The Program Philosophy is based on natural progression of learning through developmentally appropriate activity centers with emphasis on spiritual, social, physical, and intellectual growth.
The FPC Preschool is dedicated to provide opportunities for all children in our community, including those from low income, single-parents, and dual-parent families. We are a non-profit organization, sponsored by the Children & Family Ministries Committee of the First Presbyterian Church of Bellevue. FPC Preschool does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, color, national origin, disability status, or any other basis prohibited by federal, state, or local law.
