The meaning behind us...

Mansfield 1st EPC Preschool, a mission of Mansfield 1st EPC, provides a nurturing Christian environment for your child’s first educational experience away from home. 

Our preschool provides a consistent schedule with a balance between teacher directed and child centered activities.  The children will be introduced to a variety of developmentally appropriate activities including: children’s literature, dramatic play, listening center, arts &crafts, science, discovery & nature, cooking, sensory activities, social skills development, music & singing, fine and large motor activities and early reading and math skills.

 Our preschool also utilizes developmentally appropriate activities and practices(DAP) which creates a caring community, teaches to enhance children’s development and learning, plans a curriculum that meets the needs of the children, assesses children’s development/ learning and partners with families.

We view education as a partnership between families and teachers. We believe it is essential to develop a good relationship with each child and family based on open communication and mutual respect.
