• We believe that parents are the primary educators of their children – spiritually, physically, emotionally, academically, and socially.
• We believe God loves, cares for, and is concerned for children, and He equips workers for ministry to children.
• We believe that as a Christian pre-school, we are to cooperate with and support the parent as they provide a Christian education for their child.

The administration and staff of Northwood Academy Pre-school purpose to:

• Provide Christ-centered care for children of our community in the absence of their parent(s).
• Support the values found in a Christian home.
• Provide an environment that is safe and conducive to good health; a place where children can work, and play together while being guided in their growth and development.
• Provide developmentally appropriate opportunities for children to learn.
• Provide emotional, physical, and spiritual support to the children and their families.

Our aim is to strengthen each child:

• Spiritually – by inclusion of God’s Word and prayer in daily activities led by staff that model Christ-like character.
• Physically – by offering experiences which will develop large and small muscle coordination and motor skills.
• Socially – by encouraging participation and cooperation in group activities, getting along with others, which will help build the child’s sense of security, confidence in their abilities, and belonging.
• Intellectually – by exploring and using first-hand experiences which help to build enthusiasm for learning.
