At Cornerstone Christian Preschool we care deeply about God and the daily care and education of your child. We take seriously the responsibility of being a Christian influence in the life of your child during such a critical developmental time.

Children benefit when their parents and teachers work together in an atmosphere of love, trust and cooperation. The most positive and important influences in a child’s life are God-honoring, loving parents who make time to nurture their child.  The home and the preschool should provide a place where children are loved, safe, lovingly disciplined, encouraged, accepted and shown a good example.

The best thing parents can do for a child spiritually is to take care of themselves spiritually. We encourage families to worship together regularly.
