ABOUT US
At Culpeper United Methodist Preschool, every child is known, valued, and encouraged to grow. Our small class sizes allow us to build meaningful relationships with each child while providing individualized attention. We place equal emphasis on academic excellence and spiritual development, helping children build a strong foundation for both school and life. We warmly welcome families of all backgrounds and faith traditions, creating a caring, inclusive community where everyone belongs. Our experienced and dedicated teachers are passionate about nurturing each child's curiosity, confidence, and character.
Our school was established as a non-profit organization. We are a religiously based school; and as such, we are exempt from state licensing. However, we are monitored by the state and must meet and document the required guidelines set forth by the state and implement their recognized health, safety, and staffing requirements.
We have a wonderful staff of dedicated and well-trained educators. Our staff is CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. Each staff member has many years of education and experience working with children. They are committed to not only teaching but showing love, patience, and fairness to every student.
Our school can reach a maximum enrollment of 44 students. We offer preschool classes for children ages three and four. Our preschool program runs from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm.
We use the My Father's World Christian Preschool curriculum which encourages curiosity and awe for God's amazing creation. Through this curriculum, children will gain academic readiness while developing language, critical-thinking, physical, and social skills. Teachers engage students daily through read-alouds, music, hands on manipulatives, science projects, math games, art and crafts, play, and much more.
CUMC Preschool follows religious exempt guidelines set by the Department of Social Services and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin or religion. We admit well, ambulatory children whose health and abilities allow them to participate in all activities during the normal classroom day.
