The Growing Place Preschool at Calvary Christian Academy

Thank you for your interest in our Preschool Program.

About Us
The Growing Place Preschool, a ministry of Calvary Baptist Church, has existed for over 20 years. It all began at our former location on West Street, here in Warwick. In 1986 we moved to our present location at 5 Wisner Road. Our purpose was, and continues to be, to provide a quality Christian education for preschoolers. We understand the importance of a child's early years, and are glad that you are considering sharing your child with us during this precious time.

Our program is designed to assist parents in educating their child(ren) spiritually, mentally, physically, and socially. It is an excellent preparation for Kindergarten. Our caring teachers provide a warm, friendly atmosphere in which children can easily learn and enjoy themselves at the same time.

We offer two different preschool programs here at the Growing Place:

Our Three Year Olds Program

• is designed for children who will be three years old by December 1st of the year entering
  our program.

• meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:30AM - 12:00PM.

The three year olds’ curriculum emphasizes shapes, colors, and number concepts. It also includes science concepts and art projects.

Our Four Year Olds Program

• is designed for children who will be four years old by December 1st of the year entering our program.

• meets on Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday from 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM.

The four year olds’ curriculum emphasizes the alphabet (both writing and phonics), and numbers. This program will provide your child with the skills necessary for entering Kindergarten.

Toilet Training
Child needs to be toilet trained before starting school. This applies to the three year olds program as well as the four year olds program (we do not have changing facilities).
