Welcome!
Kid's Crossing Learning Center at First United Methodist Church is a nonprofit weekday school. KCLC is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International, (ACSI), and the North Georgia United Methodist Church Preschool.
Our Mission
The mission of Kid's Crossing Learning Center is to provide quality Christian educational programs for children, infant through 12 years of age, in a safe and nurturing environment. Our qualified staff seeks to team with parents to encourage physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual growth through developmentally appropriate activities. As a ministry of First United Methodist Church and a part of the Lawrenceville community, our purpose in all things is to unify children and families with Jesus Christ.
About Our Staff
All staff members are dedicated to the education of young children and participate in a continuous program of in-service training in order to remain alert to the ever-changing needs of today's families and to the findings of current research. All staff members hold a current CPR and First Aid certificate.
Curriculum
Our curriculum day begins at 9:30 am; please make every effort to bring your child to school by that time.
The curriculum at the Kid's Crossing Learning Center is based on the principles that every child is an individual with a unique personality, that each child develops at his/her own pattern of growth, and that children learn through play. The total development of each child is essential; therefore, all areas of growth and development (physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual) are important. The development of a positive self-concept is of utmost importance, as children need to feel worthwhile and competent in order to reach their optimal potential.
Lesson plans are developed weekly and are posted in the classroom. Our classrooms are set up in a learning center configuration, which allows the child to choose his/her activities. The children are guided and encouraged to learn new self-help skills, think for themselves, make choices, experiment, explore, make mistakes, and have a lot of fun.
Kid's Crossing Learning Center uses the WEE Learn Curriculum, which provides the framework on which teachers can build an early childhood program that allows children to grow and develop as Jesus did (mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually). Luke 2:52
Our School Age program for Kindergarten through Fifth Grade focuses on each student's individual talents. Students arrive to a prepared snack, guided homework time, daily devotion, computer time, games, art, science, and outdoor play and sports.
Hours of Operation: Monday through Friday 6:30am to 6:30pm.
