Mission Statement
The mission of SHINE Preschool is to reach out with the Gospel of Jesus Christ to children and families in our congregation and community with a comprehensive Christian education. We believe in educating the whole child: Spiritually, Cognitively, Socially, Emotionally, Aesthetically, and Physically.
Our Teacher
Charlotte Wiseman is our head teacher at SHINE Preschool. She has numerous years of experience teaching in Lutheran and Christian schools as well as years of experience and training in literacy. This past year the curriculum was full of educational activities and experiences for the students such as gardening, bread baking, interactive Advent wreaths, shadow science for Groundhog Day, and Valentine bags for shut-ins and elderly and friends.
Curriculum

One in Christ Preschool Curriculum provided by Concordia Publishing House will help young children learn about Jesus and grow in their understanding of God’s love for them. Lessons will provide a framework for children to explore, express, create and relate to one another each day. Supplemental curriculum in reading and math skills will ensure your child is adequately prepared for the transition to Kindergarten. Our goal is to help children see their lives from the perspective of God’s Word ensuring that they learn Christian decision-making and problem solving skills.
