King’s Kid Child Care Center seeks to embrace a philosophy of education that is firmly based upon principles derived from God’s order. There are several principles in particular which have shaped the development of our school. These are not exhaustive, but they are foundational.

We believe that:

• King’s Kids derives its authority from the family. God gave parents the responsibility of educating their children (Proverbs 22:6, Ephesians 6:14). Temple Baptist Church, as an assembly of believers, has established King’s kids as an extension of the educational processes of our church families, providing a supportive basis of encouragement as they seek to fulfill their God-given responsibilities (Proverbs 19:27, Jeremiah 10:2). As a congregation, we have further opened the ministry to other families in our community who are seeking a similar Christ-centered and academically challenging education for their children.

• The education students receive at King’s Kids must be based on the authority, authenticity, and reliability of the Bible as the complete and final revelation of God concerning all matters of truth, faith and practice (John17:7, II Timothy 3:15-17; Jude 3). We desire that students learn to view everything through the eyes of God as revealed in the Scripture, so that they may become God-centered in their thinking.

• A truly Christian education must be Christ-centered rather than student or teacher-centered. Jesus Christ must be at the center of all that is believed, said, and done. He is the source of all wisdom and knowledge (John 14:6, Colossians 2:3, 8-10).

• We have a responsibility to reach out into our community and influence young people for Christ. We are, therefore, evangelistic in our approach to Christian education (Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 16:15; Mark 10:14).

• We must seek also to edify young people and build them up in the faith. Character training and understanding of doctrine are important aspects of a Christian education (Ephesians 6:4; Colossians 1:28-29; Ephesians 4:11-16). It is our desire that our students both know the truth and apply the truth wisely in their own lives (John 8:32; John 16:13).

• King’s Kids has the responsibility of academic training. We must thoroughly educate young people, preparing them with the skills they will need to serve the Lord in any vocation into which He may lead them (II Peter 1:5).

• We must additionally provide a broad range of experiences for our students, believing that these are important in the overall development of young people. Christ-honoring programs in music and drama are, therefore, an important part of the education provided here at King’s Kids (Luke 2:52; Ps. 96:1; I Chron. 15:16; II Chron 5:13; Ps. 150:3-5).

To provide a nurturing atmosphere which encourages students to:

• Develop an awareness of their uniqueness.

• Work harmoniously with peers, contributing to the group as well as recognizing obligations to others.

• Love learning and school while building academic & spiritual readiness.

• Develop a "can do" attitude.

King’s Kids offers a preschool program that will prepare your child for school. The emphasis of this program is character and phonics. The A Beka curriculum is followed and many of the children will complete the program as early readers. They will learn number concepts, writing, and be exposed to some science. Learning is fun at this Center, and your child will be excited about what he does in the classroom. Each child is treated as an individual and is encouraged to learn at his own maturity level.

Our educational programs meet each day, Monday through Friday, from 8:30am to 12:00noon.

At the end of the program, your child will be promoted into the next program; and the five year olds will graduate. There will be a ceremony so that you and your family and friends can see the accomplishments that your child has achieved in the preceding months.
