Mission

A happy Early Childhood Center experience is preparation for the school years to come. The mission of the Savannah Adventist Christian Early Childhood Center is to help young children gain the confidence they need to become lifelong learners. We educate the whole child through a variety of activities including physical movement, mental stimulation, character development, social skills, trustful relationships, and the application of spiritual truths.

Mornings are full of many learning activities, singing, socialization, and physical activity. Some of the activities will include learning numbers, the alphabet, shapes, and colors. Your child will learn Bible stories and even memorize Bible verses. Snack and lunch times provide opportunities for your child to learn proper etiquette and practice being thankful for what God has given. Those who are registered for early morning or afternoon care will follow a schedule which includes rest time, planned activities, and free play.

Preschool

A fully potty-trained child may enroll in Preschool on or after their third birthday, at any point in the school year. We offer enrollment options for two-day (Tuesday & Thursday), three-day (Monday, Wednesday, Friday), and five-day (Monday to Friday) programs.

 

Pre-Kindergarten

A child must turn four on or before September 1 to enroll in Pre-Kindergarten. Pre-K is a five-day per week program.

NEW for 2023-2024: Holidays & Vacation

Students enrolled in the Preschool or Pre-K Early Learning Program will be enrolled in a year-round program (August to July). Holidays plus nine weeks of vacation are scheduled in advance, and coincide with SACS K-8 vacations and holidays. A discount will be given for up to two vacation weeks during the summer months (June & July), as long as vacation is scheduled with the office by June 1. No discount is given for additional days off during the year. Families who do not require summer care must provide notice and pay a hold-your-seat fee no later than April 1 to return in August; otherwise, the seat will be forfeited.
