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 Weekday Preschool, 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 current 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. In early 2021, the preschool is excited to be moving into a brand new Church on the Ridge facility that adds new brightly lit classrooms, two large indoor soft play areas, a covered outdoor play area and warm inviting location for waiting parents.
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.

Pre-Kindergarten Class
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).

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.
