Welcome to FCPC Preschool

Childhood should be a sacred space, a space for exploration and discovery. It should be a safe space where children can learn and take risks as they grow in confidence and understanding. It should be a space that exposes young minds to new ideas, new challenges, and new opportunities.  

​

Creating this space of learning through play is a platform and a model that FCPC Preschool fully embraces. There is such innate joy engaging children in this way. To witness their growth and confidence take root and grow is indeed a privilege.  

​

Creating this space requires strong leadership and a loving and motivated staff. It requires partnering with parents and families, working together to support our youngest learners. It requires commitment from all participants to embrace the love of learning. It requires a Christ-centered focus providing a firm foundation from which to launch. 

 

Allowing children this space is what FCPC Preschool does best.

Amy Leigh Teele Preschool Art Show 

 Amy Teele was the embodiment of joy. Her zest for life was contagious. Being in her presence brought laughter to your heart and a smile to your face. Nothing seemed to bring Amy down. Her example is one of a life fully and well lived. 

 

As many of you know, Amy was not only a beloved preschool teacher, but also a passionate Art teacher, and a devoted Sunday School teacher. Among the events that brought her joy, the annual Art Show held a particularly special place in her heart. This cherished event allows us to celebrate the creativity of our young artists, as their work is displayed for all to see. 

 

Each year, Amy would thoughtfully purchase art supplies for the preschool, carefully selecting materials that would spark the imaginations of the children in our care. Few understood the joy of the creative process quite like Amy did. With a unique ability to see the world through the eyes of a child, she knew just how to introduce ideas and materials that would inspire the children to create freely. 

 

In honor of her spirit, her dedication to creativity, and her unwavering belief in the joy of childhood and the love of learning, we are proud to announce that our annual Art Show will now bear her name. 

 

It is with great joy that we officially rename our annual Art Show in her honor. We dedicate this show to Amy, to the lasting impact she had on all of us, and to the creative spirit she so lovingly nurtured in each child. 

 

In loving memory, 

Karin
