Mission Statement & Philosophy

Oak Grove UMC Christian School Mission Statement

We are committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and developmentally appropriate program for children in a Christian environment. We will work together as staff to assure that all children and their families feel valued and accepted. We will respect and support each other as fellow staff as we work towards our goal. 

Philosophy

Children at Oak Grove UMC Christian School are given daily opportunities to use age-appropriate materials and resources to create, build, imagine, and explore. Our philosophy focuses on developing positive self-esteem and independence. Children are encouraged to try new ideas and learn from their mistakes. They learn to work together cooperatively side by side.

We believe that children learn best by doing. Our experienced and well-trained teachers provide the opportunity and environment for this learning. Our low child-teacher ratios make interactions between children and caregivers individualized and meaningful. Oak Grove Christian School is a place where children and adults are loved and valued as unique individuals. You can see it in our smiles!
