Ames Christian School provides a number of options for early childhood education to prepare your child for future academic success. 

​

Half Day Preschool 
Three and four-year-olds can be a part of our half-day programs. Wrap-around childcare is also available. 

​

Early Kindergarten
The Early Kindergarten program is a bridge between preschool and Kindergarten designed to prepare children for positive future school experiences. Children who will benefit from this program are five years old that may need another year to grow and mature before being ready for our Academic Kindergarten curriculum and routine.

​

The Early Kindergarten program offers a hands-on curriculum that meets various skill levels for students. It doesn't repeat the curriculum used in preschool or jump ahead to the Academic Kindergarten curriculum. Instead, the program builds and expands on what preschoolers have learned and offers a variety of activities that help them master social and academic skills needed for Academic Kindergarten.

​

The small class size provides a Personalized Christian Education for each child. After completing a year in Early Kindergarten the child will be prepared to enter our Academic Kindergarten. This class meets from 12:00-3:00 pm five days a week.
