At Free Chapel Preschool it is our goal and desire to provide quality care, a nurturing environment, and valuable preschool education for your child from ages 2 through Pre-Kindergarten. We will partner with you in the total development of your child as he or she grows spiritually, physically, cognitively, and socially.
Philosophy & Mission
Mission
We are Free Chapel Preschool & Kindergarten and serve the children and families in our community from ages 2 to 5 years old. Our Mission is to build within each child a strong foundation in God’s Word and create a desire within their hearts, joyfully serving the Lord. We provide a safe environment for children to grow, learn, develop, play, thrive, and become all God has purposed them to be. We believe every child is entitled to personal attention in a relaxed atmosphere that fosters a sense of safety, security, and love. We accomplish this with highly trained teachers that hold a strong background in early childhood education.
Philosophy
Children will learn, grow and develop as they play, socialize, listen, and experience the world around them. Free Chapel Preschool & Kindergarten establishes their confidence, creativity, independence, and love of learning through daily opportunities presented to them by our program.

Helping Your Child Explore, Grow, & Learn
At Free Chapel Preschool & Kindergarten, we understand that this is an important and exciting time for you as you choose a preschool and kindergarten for your child. At Free Chapel, we foster each kid’s growth by providing a loving, supportive, and nurturing environment where they develop a lifelong love of learning. Our educational philosophy provides a child-centered learning environment that educates the whole child – intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically.
Our educational programs, along with our caring, dedicated, and highly educated staff, are what sets us apart.
