Philosophies and Goals

The faculty and child care staff of St. Paul Lutheran School view each child as uniquely created and redeemed by God. We value each child and work at providing a loving and secure environment in which to grow and learn. We recognize individual differences and strive to provide experiences for growth according to each child’s strengths and needs. Daily activities are planned to meet the needs of the whole child: spiritual, intellectual, physical, emotional, and social. Our primary goal is to help each child grow in faith and show evidence of God’s love in his/her life. We desire for each child to grow in curiosity and his/her love of learning. Each child should have opportunities to develop fully his/her talents and potential to be a productive citizen of this world and a servant of our Lord.

The goal of St. Paul Lutheran Child Care is to provide quality Christian care for preschool and school age children in a safe, nurturing and stimulating setting that will allow for completion of homework, playtime, and additional learning and enrichment activities.
