First United Methodist Christian School

Christian School
Our Purpose

Our purpose is to minister to the whole child by providing a safe, caring Christian environment that nurtures each child’s social emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual growth. We also provide emotional and spiritual support to parents and families.

Our History

We are a non profit program that is supported by the First United Methodist Church and licensed by the state of Colorado. We first opened our doors in 1998 with our Toddler Center and have continued to grow. We recognize the unique worth of all God’s children regardless of their race, sex or cultural background. It is our desire to minister to all children, sharing Christ’s love for mankind.

Our preschool program is for children 3-5 years old. Here we offer a balance of play and structure that introduces children to the pre-number and language experiences, routines and other concepts that will prepare them for a lifetime of learning enjoyment. Through discovery learning, hands on activities, literature, science experiments, songs, finger plays and art activities, the children explore a variety of themes through out the year. Our school year calendar is similar to 9R’s and we are open from 7:30 to 5:30 with the main part of our program from 9 to 3. We also have a summer program.

This program began in 2001 and we feel it offers the best of all worlds. Our teacher to student ratio is small which allows for more attention and individualization. We have a strong academic curriculum using some of the same materials that they use in 9R and with our small numbers we can enrich our days with lots of special activities.

Before and after care for the preschool and kindergarten is $3.00/hr
