Childhood Enrichment Center at Christ Church

CELEBRATE WITH US!
In September 2010 Christ Church will celebrate 50 years of week-day school!
Keep checking back for special details about how we will mark this wonderful milestone.


The Childhood Enrichment Center is a vital part of Christ United Methodist Church's ministry to the community. This program affirms our belief that a child is a gift from God, to be treasured, nurtured and appreciated as a unique individual. While we do not teach doctrine in the CEC classes, our program is solidly grounded in Christian values. The Childhood Enrichment Center offers children a cheerful and wholesome environment in which to develop physically, mentally, socially and emotionally.

We believe that young children learn best through play and social interaction and we strive to offer them the opportunity to exercise their creativity and imagination within loving and well-defined limits. In our crib, creeper, and toddler rooms, our primary goal is to provide quality, loving care. We offer the same quality, loving care in the two, three, four year olds and Kindergarten classes; and in addition, flexible daily activities designed to meet each age group's developmental needs.
