2006 W.I.S.E. Award Recipient
Wonderfully In Search of Excellence
Western North Carolina Conference
of the United Methodist Church
St. Luke's Child Development Center is an outreach mission of St. Luke's UMC. We began over 30 years ago as a co-op Mother's Morning Out Program, serving a hand-full of children. By 2006 we had grown to serving over 100 children. We have expanded our programs to include preschool for children from ages 5 months through Four Year Old Pre-K classes and a Transitional Kindergarten for older four year olds and five year olds.
The C.D.C. Exists To:
- To be an outreach program of St. Luke's United Methodist Church that ministers to the needs of children in a Christian environment.
- To provide and atmosphere which will help each child grow tohis or her fullest potential: physically, emotionally, socially, mentally, and spiritually.
- To offer families in our community a program that is designed to help children learn to share and play.
- To assure that children leave our program ready to learn, with enthusiasm and social and educational skills for successful learning in elementary school and behond.
Our Curriculum Philosophy
At SLCDC, we believe in the importance of ministering to the "whole child." We provide the children with a Christ-centered, developmentally appropriate learning environment where all activities are child-oriented, with subtle eacher direction that demonstrates and reinforces Christian character. Our curriculum for our youngest children includes daily music, stories, art, free play and outside play (weather permitting). We offer weekly Spanish lessons, Art Adventures outreach classes the Hickory Museum of Art and chapel to our classes starting with our Three Year Old Class. Our Fours and Transitional Kindergarten also take local field trips and the Letterland Phonics curriculum.
