ages 2, 3 and 4 years old. We offer Weekday Preschool from 9am-12pm and have classes that meet various days during the week based on the specific class. We open our registration to our current students in February, and then following that, we open our registration to the community. If you think you may be interested in enrolling your child in our programs, we advise calling as soon as possible to get on our wait list.  

Our classes are as follows:

2-Year-Olds: 2 day option (Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday) or 4 days (Monday-Thursday)

3-Year-Olds: 3 day option (Tuesday-Thursday) or 4 day option (Monday-Thursday

Fun facts about the preschool: First UMC began offering weekday education to children in the community in the 1960s by

providing a weekday Kindergarten class. When the state started their own Kindergarten program, First Methodist Church began the Weekday Preschool. When the preschool started, there was 18 children in one class. During the 1980s, 30 students attended two separate classes, and the preschool now serves over 60 children in the church and community.

Preschool Summer Camp: A 10-week program from 9am-1pm

Monday-Thursday for 2-year-olds through rising Kindergartners. This program focuses on

fun summer activities with weekly themes that tie into easy to understand

Bible verses and stories. This camp begins in June and ends in mid-August.

Registration opens in March for current students and will open by April
