Our Philosophy
Sandia Presbyterian Preschool is a Christian education center committed to providing faith-based developmentally appropriate educational opportunities for the social/emotional, cognitive, language and physical growth of the young child. We believe that children should be nurtured, respected for their own individuality and encouraged to grow at their own rate. We embrace every child's individual needs and therefore, provide opportunities in which each child can experience success. We believe that every child and their family deserve equitable access to appropriate services and supports that acknowledge their uniqueness and enable them to reach their full potential.
We provide an environment which allows educational experiences to take place through "interest areas" that offer opportunities at play, make-believe, interactions with others, experimentation, exploration, manipulation of objects, use of the five sense and hands-on experiences.
We believe that children develop a sense of trust, compassion, and become accountable through observation and personal experience of positive role modeling. Therefore, we are committed to valuing and embracing all children and their families through our staff's interactions.

We follow the APS School Calendar for breaks and holidays, but we do not follow their start and end dates. We also follow their inclement weather decisions, but an APS two-hour delay means we are closed the entire school day.
