                                                                             Our Philosophy

                                  Fox Chapel Presbyterian Church Preschool is a place where children are loved and encouraged
                                            to explore their wonderful world using their senses, feelings and minds.
                             Through play, children learn to think more clearly, share and cooperate, be sensitive to the needs
                                              of others and satisfy their curiosity about the world around them.
                                                       We believe that each child is a special gift from God.
                                                    Their thoughts and feelings are important and meaningful.
                        Our programs and teachers help children build self-confidence and a love and a respect for others
                             as well as nurture their spirituality and appreciation of the wonders of God's amazing world.

                                                                        

                                                                           Our Learning Goals

                                         We take great pride in building our curriculum around our six learning goals.
                                    We are committed as a team to work on these with each other as well.
                          We believe as a team which includes the child and their family, the teachers and the Preschool
                                                director, that great accomplishments are in store for everyone.
