First United Methodist Church Preschool

FUMC Preschool thrives to provide a happy and loving environment where each child feels special. Teachers will collaborate to build a curriculum that will enhance the goals and objectives with developmentally appropriate play, center time and activities. Children will be evaluated once a semester to see how they have progressed. We follow the USD 457 school calendar and share the same holiday and break schedule.
