We are licensed by Department of Health and Environmental Control (DEHC) of South Carolina and have small classes for individual attention and development. Our teachers are also highly qualified and experienced to guide and teach the children.
The child's school day will be from 9:00 a. m. until 12 Noon, Monday through Friday. Children arrive no earlier than 8:45 AM and should be pick up on later than 12 noon. Children who arrive before 8:45 AM or not picked up by noon will be charged for extended care.
The calendar for the school year will correspond to Richland County School District One for major holidays. In addition to that calendar, the preschool/kindergarten may have several teacher in-service days. On these days there may be no school and no extended care.
The Wesley Memorial Preschool/Kindergarten operates as a part of the educational ministry of the church, convinced that God's continuing activity is best interpreted to children through learning and loving relationships between teachers and children and strengthening of family ties through home, school and church. Curriculum development begins with the needs of individual children and teachers are facilitators in the teaching-learning environment. Activates are designed to enhance the social, intellectual, physical and spiritual development of participating children, as well as affirm the role of parents in teaching-learning experiences.
Goals for each child
Will be
invited to grow through experiences of success and warm affirming
relationships with other children and adults.

of coordination of large and small muscles, and use of emerging skills.

teachers, other children and in larger group experiences.

adults, parents and child response to the seeking love of God.
Will be given many opportunities to develop self-expression through the
use of oral and written language, reading, writing, use of art, media,
music, building materials and other resources to stimulate creative and

Will be given opportunity to experience God in loving relationships with people, fostering understanding and loving concern, making possible for adults, parents and child response to the seeking love of God.
The Wesley Memorial Preschool/Kindergarten is base on the needs of the child. Experience is provided in the area of religion, art, music, math, science, language and social studies. Growth in self confidence will be more important than strictly subject matter.
