Early Childhood – Prekindergarten
Advent’s Prekindergarten program is designed to lay the foundation for a successful kindergarten experience with the specific expectations of Advent’s kindergarten program in mind. Children must be four years old on or before September 1, and able to use the toilet independently.
Our Prekindergarten program utilizes the Abeka Christian curriculum. This curriculum is based on sound scholarship, common sense, and the Word of God. Letters, numbers, language, reading and pre-reading skills, as well as math concepts are taught using multi-sensory activities to provide opportunities for children to engage in learning in a variety of ways. Science experiments and social studies units prepare students for kindergarten curriculum.
Children continue to develop social skills as they communicate with their peers and adults, and work together on group projects. Communication skills are developed based on the students’ level with songs, games, and fingerplays.
The Prekindergarten year ends with a graduation ceremony celebrating the special time we have shared with the children.
While students experience a friendly and warm environment, there are procedures and personnel quietly and efficiently guarding our campus.

Dual Language PreKindergarten Program
We are excited to offer our Prekindergarten students the opportunity to be part of a Dual Language program. This PreK setting is designed to encourage children to become bilingual, speaking comfortably in both English and Spanish in everyday settings. Research indicates that children who are adequately exposed to two or more languages at an early age experience significant gains. Dual Language instructors are completely fluent in both languages.
In the morning lessons and activities will be taught in English, the afternoon’s instruction is conducted in Spanish.
Our experienced ECS staff involves parents in activities and special events. We believe this program helps prepare our four-year-old students to be a part of the global community.
