Our Philosophy
GTCLC offers child care services and an educational curriculum for children ages 18 months to 5 years old. We are a Christian, family-oriented facility designed to focus on the most important learning and development needs of your young child.
Most children spend a full day at GTCLC. For this reason, we strive to provide an atmosphere of comfort and security for each and every child. Our philosophy is based on serving the whole child – meaning every aspect of the child’s life – intellectual, physical spiritual, emotional, and social.
We offer an educational program that does not ignore the value of play, but instead emphasizes learning through play. We recognize that the ability of children to solve problems, communicate effectively and develop social relationships, is greatly enhanced when they are allowed to behave as young people and play.
The preschool curriculum offers a variety of developmentally appropriate activities designed to engage, stimulate, and prepare them for school. These activities also incorporate the introduction of the disciplines, including science, mathematics, language arts, reading, and social studies.
Every child at GTCLC will be allowed to
advance at his or her own pace with gentle guidance from the
teacher. This goal will be made possible by instructing children in
small groups utilizing a variety of learning tools, as well as
computers, and employing various observations and recording
techniques to assess the progress of each child. |
