Day school

Our Day School at First Pres Salisbury is a half-day preschool program in the downtown Salisbury area. We have classrooms for Toddlers, 2-year-olds, 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds. At our Day School, we understand the importance of early education for the socialization and positive learning environment that it provides for young children. Our teachers and church staff work together with parents to create a great beginning for your child’s education.
How We Nurture Your Child
  • We ensure every child has a safe, enjoyable learning environment.
  • We ensure our parents that their child is well cared for and loved by our teachers and staff.
  • We ensure that all important areas of childhood development are met: social, emotional, cognitive, physical and spiritual.
  • We help children learn many of the basics & fundamentals with hands-on, play-based experiences in the classroom and on the playground.
  • We help children explore many learning medias and environments such as Spanish, sign language, Bible stories, music, movement, and art.
  • We ensure that every child knows that they are a child of God and God loves them unconditionally.
  • We help children grow in their understanding of the church and they are a part of His kingdom.
Our Day School is conveniently located to many exciting adventures for our students. We can walk to the main Rowan Public Library for story time. We can enjoy the Bell Tower Green Park and its playground and water wall across the street. Our older students can walk with safety guard assistance to The Fun Factory (one block away). There are additional field trips that our students enjoy such as: Patterson Pumpkin Patch (fall) and Strawberry Patch (spring), and The Lazy 5 Ranch. Our students love our planned visits from firemen, doctors, therapy dogs, policemen, musicians, and our church’s JOY club (Just Older Youth). Our pastoral and music staff visit weekly for special praise time and singing.

Our Day School also is located on our church campus with many indoor and outdoor areas designed specifically for preschool children. Your child will feel welcomed and loved. We know our parents and extended families feel the same way too. Please enjoy our Monthly Dayschool Newletter to see current events.
