We know that selecting the right preschool for your child is a big and often confusing decision. There are many choices and we understand that you want to be certain that you have made the best choice for your child. At Kids on the Ridge Preschool (a ministry of Church on the Ridge), we embrace the truth that God made us each unique. He gave us each special giftings, talents and abilities. We all learn at different rates and in different ways. With this in mind, we provide each child with engaging lessons and a variety of activities that make learning fun and nurture who they are in Christ.

Our state-of-the-art 2,000 square foot facility is a bright and positive learning environment that includes large classrooms with over 500 square feet of indoor play area.

Our learning center provides a warm, safe and fun environment that helps your child develop emotionally, intellectually, physically, socially, and spiritually. Classrooms and play areas are designed to be inviting and engaging as your child explores new horizons.

Our teachers and environments help your child discover that learning is fun, while they make new friends and build strong relationships. We partner with you in your child’s development.

Program Offerings

3s Class

To enter this class your child must be 3 years old by December 1st. The students in the 3’s Class will be engaged with several types of learning materials from sensory bins, fine motor skills and letter/number recognition. Three-year-old children will be actively toilet training with reminders throughout the school day and building relationships with the Teaching Team. Kids on the Ridge Preschool focuses on God’s love for each and every one of us. We help the students learn to share and how to be a friend using their words to get their ideas communicated.

3 / 4s Class

To enter this class your child must be 3 years old by September 1st. The students in the 3 / 4’s Class will experience a loved filled learning environment, with many hands-on materials. Children will work on name writing, letter/number recognition and circle time behavior / activities. They will practice self-care skills such as being responsible for cleaning up their space, remembering and following multi-step directions. We work on social skills like initiating play, sharing and making decisions with peers. Children will be accountable keeping track of their personal items and independently using the restroom.

Pre-Kindergarten Class

The Pre-Kindergarten class is a busy room and the children are given the freedom to choose learning materials, guided by the teacher to ensure that each student is progressing towards Kindergarten readiness. Allowing the students to choose their work helps build their confidence and independence to explore. Circle time emphasizes class theme curriculum, sound of the week, books, songs, and art.

For classes that have extended hours until 1:30pm, children will need to bring a healthy lunch to enjoy at school with friends. Due to severe allergies, we are a No-NUT Facility (i.e. no peanut butter or nuts of any kind).

Jr. Kindergarten Class

Jr. Kindergarten is a year for children to receive additional development time to grow emotionally, physically and academically in a nurturing Christian school environment. The students will work on reading skills (letters, phonics, sight words), writing (“Handwriting Without Tears” curriculum), math (“Singapore Early Bird Math Common Core Edition”) workbooks, ten frame math, counting, addition and subtraction). The class will focus on God’s 7 Days of Creation, Bible verse memorization, circle time, art, science, music and movement. To instill independence, they will enjoy lunch together, which will enhance their personal responsibility (i.e. manners, cooperation, cleanup, time management). Due to severe allergies, we are a No NUT Facility (i.e. no peanut butter or nuts of any kind).

A fun part of Jr. Kindergarten is preparing for and participating in the annual Christmas Program, Graduation, and other fun-filled classroom and holiday events.

Summer Day Camp

Throughout the summer, Kids on the Ridge offers fun and affordable theme-based day camps for preschoolers. Each camp will be a 4 day camp – Monday – Thursday 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Please pack a lunch with an ice pack for freshness. Our camp schedule will launch in March 2020.
