Mars Hill Presbyterian Church Preschool began in 2001 as a ministry committed to providing quality education in a loving Christian setting. Our goals are:
To provide a positive, safe, happy environment where a child will be able to experience success.
To provide hands-on leaning with a Bible/theme based curriculum through art, music, creative play, Bible stories and verses.
To build skills for kindergarten readiness.
To satisfy a child's need to find out, the need to belong, and the need to feel secure in God's plan for us.
To foster the vision/mission of Mars Hill Church by:
Bringing people in our community to Jesus through their children.
Educating children about God's love.
Ministering to our church and community through the children's programs.
Having our children spread the good news of Jesus Christ to the community.
Having our children worship together with their families and community.
Each class follows a schedule that includes time for music, movement, art, Bible stories, crafts, snacks, circle time, centers, outdoor play time and academic instruction. There is a school-wide theme, color and shape of the month. We use the Zoo-phonics academic curriculum, and our Bible education curriculum studies one Fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23 ) per month. We have a student body of 62 and staff of 13. All staff members must pass a criminal background check and take classes in CPR and First Aid.
In general we follow the Cobb County Schools' schedule with a week later start date, 2 extra days for Christmas break and a week earlier end date.
