Philosophy

Crossgates Baptist Kindergarten is a place where children discover that it is fun to learn!

Since learning is a lifelong process, we believe that a child’s first educational experiences should be positive, and active learning is much more valuable than passive learning.

At CBK, children want to come to school. They are loved and accepted as individuals, and important and valued as children that God has created. Their learning environment is rich in hands-on experiences which allow them to think and reason, and provides a wide variety of teaching materials, which encourages creativity and decision-making. Activities cover all curriculum areas and are based on what is appropriate for the child’s stage of development.
Children at Crossgates love to learn … and learn to love … like Jesus!

Curriculum

K3/K4: We use Wee Learn, Learning Without Tears and Saxon Math.

It is Biblically sound and age-appropriate, and serves as a guide for teaching through the use of activity centers that allow the teacher to work individually or with a group of children.

The curriculum Learning Without Tears provides a strong foundation for writing, science, math, and phonics.

K5: Learning With Teachers - Phonics and Me & Saxon Math curriculums provide hands on, center-based learning that aligns with CBK Philosophy of how preschoolers learn best.

Classes

Children may attend five days a week or three days a week.(Tuesday through Thursday)

Play Days

Drop Off/Pick Up

As a service to parents, children may be dropped off and picked up at designated times without parents having to park
and get out of their cars.

Children may be dropped off at the CBK entrance from 8:00 – 8:30 AM each morning as the director helps them out of the vehicle and into the building.

At 11:30 AM or 1:30 PM, children may be picked up as parents drive through the carpool line.

Measures to ensure each child’s safety and security
are used at all times.
