Shepherd Of The Hills Lutheran Preschool

Our Beginnings

Shepherd of the Hills Preschool was founded in the fall of 1985 with a simple vision: to nurture young minds and hearts in a loving, Christian environment. From humble beginnings with one 3-Year-Old and one 4-Year-Old class, we have grown into a thriving preschool offering diverse programs for young learners.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy rests on providing a child-centered curriculum that fosters exploration, creativity, and a genuine love for learning. We believe in:

• Nurturing individual potential: We tailor our approach to each child's learning styles and developmental stages.
• Promoting social-emotional growth: We nurture self-confidence, empathy, and a sense of community through collaborative play and social interaction.
• Engaging in joyful discovery: We encourage exploration through hands-on activities, experiments, and play-based learning.
