Preschool Pricing and Information
Philosophy
 
We believe that young children should have the opportunity to learn more about their Savior, Jesus Christ and learn and practice basic Christian truths of love, care, and forgiveness with one another, We also see the importance of providing an environment where the child can grow physically, mentally, and socially.

Hot Lunch Program
 
Students in the four-year-old all day programs and in kindergarten are offered a hot lunch through the Pekin public schools. The cost is $1 .75/day. A menu is sent home each month with the choices for each day. Milk cards are sold for $3.00. These are good for 10 cartons of milk. Parents may choose to pack a lunch for their child each day or on certain days when the menu is not something the child would like.
