Kindergarten at Red Hill Christian School

It is a pleasure to introduce you to our kindergarten class. We offer three options: morning only, full day enrichment, and extended hours. Our program provides the best of everything we know about how to fully educate and challenge the kindergarten age child.

What a wonderful choice for families! A challenging, 3 ½ hour morning program and an afternoon option for those wishing an all day program. Tuition is manageable and within reach of most families while realistic enough for the school to provide quality staffing and curriculum.

We focus on basic skills- phonics, math, literature, science and language, all presented within a Christian context. Children are taught moral values and character development through Bible instruction. They are given their own copy of a children's Bible to use in Bible classes throughout the year.

Please consider our kindergarten for this important year of your child's schooling. We welcome further inquiry and your questions.

Children age five by September 1 are eligible for enrollment. Children who apply for our program are screened to determine readiness for Kindergarten. The class enrolls 18 to 24 children led by a certified teacher and an experienced assistant.
