Orange Tree Mission Viejo

At Orange Tree Christian Preschool, our goal is to nurture young children in a loving environment and provide each child with a positive introduction to formal education. We believe that each child is a unique gift of God and that a child's first school experience is important because it lays the foundation for all future educational experiences.

Our Philosophy

We believe that each child develops at their own pace, and therefore, we strive to provide an environment that is safe, loving, and rich in opportunities for learning and growth. Our approach is centered around the whole child, recognizing that each child develops physically, intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually. We use project-based learning, social emotional learning, integrated studies, and multidisciplinary studies to provide a well-rounded education.

Our Unique Teaching System

Our teaching system is built around the Orange Tree System, which focuses on the development of the mind, body, spirit, and community. Our approach is designed to create a positive and encouraging atmosphere that allows each child to develop at their own pace. We believe that by fostering a love of learning, we can set the stage for a lifetime of growth and development.

Mind, Body, Spirit, and Community

Our mind-focused development goals include academic development, teaching children to love learning, and providing a strong foundation in reading, writing, and mathematics. Our body-focused goals include teaching healthy eating habits, providing a fun and engaging physical education program, and encouraging physical activity and exercise. Our spirit-focused goals include providing a foundational understanding of God's Word at an age-appropriate level and teaching children about the principles of faith and values. Our community-focused goals include promoting awareness of self and others, teaching cooperation and teamwork, and encouraging positive relationships with peers and teachers.

Our Enrichment Programs

We offer a range of enrichment programs designed to provide additional opportunities for learning and growth. Our programs include music, art, and physical education, as well as special activities and events throughout the year. We believe that these programs help to create a well-rounded education that prepares children for future success.
