Cultivating a Lifelong Love of Learning

At Eastside Christian School, we ignite a passion for knowledge in every child, creating a strong academic foundation that inspires curiosity and exploration for years to come.

Kindergarten

At Eastside Christian School, our kindergarten program is designed to set your child on the path to educational success, blending quality education with a nurturing environment. From the very start, we provide a strong academic foundation that fosters a genuine love for learning.

We follow a traditional educational philosophy, where tried-and-true methods like ABEKA phonics and Saxon math help ensure mastery of fundamental skills. We understand that young children thrive on repetition, which helps them build perseverance and character—skills that are invaluable as they progress through their education. To complement this philosophy, we thoughtfully integrate technology into our curriculum. The use of engaging reading and math software allows children to practice and review skills at their own pace and inspires them to reach new goals as they grow.

At Eastside Christian School, we also believe that spiritual growth is a vital part of a child’s development. Our kindergarten program includes engaging Bible lessons that introduce children to important stories and values, helping them understand the foundations of our faith. Through Bible verse memorization, we encourage children to internalize key teachings, reinforcing their connection to the lessons learned. Weekly chapel sessions provide a joyful opportunity for worship and community, allowing students to come together in celebration and reflection. This integration of spiritual learning not only enriches our curriculum but also nurtures the hearts and minds of our young learners, fostering a sense of purpose and belonging.

Community and parental involvement are at the heart of our kindergarten experience. We encourage parents to participate in classroom activities and events, fostering a strong sense of community. Families enjoy how we incorporate cultural and holiday traditions into our curriculum and field trips, making learning a shared adventure.

Our dedicated teachers create a safe and nurturing environment, prioritizing both safety and emotional well-being. With small class sizes, each child receives personalized attention, allowing for tailored instruction that meets their unique needs. Our well-rounded curriculum covers academics, art, music, physical education, Bible studies, and social-emotional learning, ensuring that children receive a holistic education.

Ultimately, our kindergarten program at Eastside Christian School prepares children for a smooth transition to elementary school, both academically and socially. With experienced and passionate teachers at the helm, your child will thrive in a positive learning environment where they are encouraged to explore, grow, and build a strong foundation for future success.
