Trinity Lutheran Church Preschool, Manhattan Beach

The purpose of Trinity Lutheran Church Preschool is to provide appropriate learning experiences for young children. Preschool staff and administration are dedicated to creating an environment in which preschoolers develop and flourish physically, emotionally, mentally, and socially. Our teaching staff is well-credentialed, have backgrounds cleared by the Department of Justice, FBI, and local law enforcement agencies, and demonstrate their love for educating young children by contributing experience, diversity, and personal passion. Interest centers within each classroom are available so children can engage in focused, creative play. Typical areas include a quiet area to look at books, dramatic play areas such as a kitchen, grocery store, and doctor or veterinarian office, an area to construct with blocks, areas to use manipulatives, sensory experience tables, a dress-up center and art centers offering a variety of different mediums. Curriculum includes art, science, music, cooking, pre-math concepts, pre-reading activities, the development of small and gross motor skills, and social interactions. Young children are especially adept at learning languages, and learn best through immersion as opposed to direct instruction. Several of our staff, who speak Spanish as a first language, will present a variety of daily curricula in Spanish. We welcome children that are not potty trained. Our preschool staff offers curriculum and help to parents transitioning children from diapers to the toilet. We offer flexible schedules to meet the unique needs of individual families. Trinity Lutheran Church Preschool is open to all children ages 2 to 5 who are ready for preschool as mutually agreed upon by parents and preschool administration.
