Pre-K

Trinity Christian Academy's goal is to ensure a safe and comfortable transition from the home to school.  We care about your children as if they are our own and teach the morals and values expected from a Christian organization.  The love and kindness exuded by our teaching staff is unparalleled and perfectly exhibited on a daily basis. All of us at TCA feel confident that your children will thrive in this environment.
 
Our classrooms and daily activities are structured for success!  Central to Early Education Program (Pre-K and Kindergarten) are interactive and hands-on activities stimulating creativity, while helping children develop valuable skills.  Our curriculum includes an exploration of basic math skills and reading readiness activities.  Additionally, we have purposefully designed activities that help children discover a love for music, art, and physical education.

In the process, students learn the valuable skills of teamwork and problem solving, and becoming independent and curious learners.  The curriculum includes instructional time in language arts, math, science, social studies, Bible, Spanish, music, art physical education, reading time with the librarian, and a weekly chapel.

Above all else, Trinity provides a strong Christian foundation through every aspect of the Pre-K and Kindergarten curriculum.  Daily instruction encourages children to love, respect, and to show kindness to one another.  Our goal is to plant a seed of truth and love for the Lord and His creation.

CLASS STRUCTURE AND REQUIREMENTS

Trinity offers three or five full day Pre-K options.  Students entering Pre-K must be four years old by September 1 to apply.  The Pre-K program runs from 8:00 AM to 2:45 PM.  Students applying for Kindergarten must be five years old by September 1 to qualify for enrollment.

Early Education Commitment to Compliance

Trinity’s Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten programs are exempt from many of the state reporting regulations, because they are part of its accredited Pre-Kindergarten through grade 12 program.  TCA is committed to ongoing monitoring and complying with necessary state regulations for early education.

"The Pre-K program at Trinity is the only place I would want my child to be if they are not at home with me.  The teachers are the kindest, most loving instructors I have ever encountered and make my child feel safe and secure.  They are a true representation of God's love for His children, and we truly love them."
