Educational Methodology and Instructional Philosophy of Our Savior\u00a0\u00a0Preschool <\/b><\/p>\n
Our Savior Preschool<\/b> is dedicated to the spiritual, emotional, and intellectual development of each, individual child.<\/p>\n
The most impressionable and formative years in a child\u2019s life are the ages of birth through five years.\u00a0 This is why we at Our Savior take our jobs so seriously.\u00a0 We have a dedicated, Christian staff that models, teaches and fully integrates Christian values into a challenging, academic curriculum.<\/p>\n
Our teaching approach uses the methodology and best teaching practices developed by Dr. George Morrison, Chair of the Velma Schmidt Early Childhood Program at The University of North Texas. Dr. Morrison, retired Professor of Early Childhood at the University of North Texas, is the author of Early Childhood Education textbooks used in prestigious universities across the United States.<\/p>\n
