It is our goal to provide a nurturing, caring, and positive environment. We create a warm and exciting place for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergarteners to learn. We connect the relationship between home and school, we guide children to continue self-image, and we build and promote social skills in a school setting. Sensory, motor, perceptual, spiritual, and language skills are introduced through materials and activities that are both child-centered and teacher-directed. Experiences are planned to emphasize the process rather than the product, fostering a sense of accomplishment and pride.
According to the theory that children learn through play, classroom routines encourage active involvement, meaningful experimentation and reinforcement through repetition. Schedules are designed with the balance of structure and free choice, as well as active and quiet time.
Nazaree Full Gospel Church School is divided into five (5) age groupings:
- Infants - Six weeks to approximately 1 years
- Younger Toddlers - Approximately 1 through 2 years
- Older Toddlers - 2 through 3 years
- Pre-School - 3 through 4 years
- Kindergarten - 5 years
Nazaree Full Gospel Church School is a 4 - STAR center. We provide a high-quality program that goes above and beyond the DHR Performance Standards. What is Alabama Quality STARS? Alabama’s QRIS (Quality Rating and Improvement System) is a partnership between the Alabama Department of Human Resources and the Alabama Department of Early Childhood Education. This system awards STAR levels to early childhood care and education programs that meet a set of defined program standards which are comprised of standardized, research-based criteria. By participating in this program, early care and education providers will embark on a path of continuous quality and improvement. Alabama Quality STARS is committed to recognizing a program’s strength while providing support to forge a path to continuous improvement. Programs have to meet a minimum score requirement on both the Best Practice Rubric and CLASS scoring model in order to meet different STAR levels.
NFGC School curriculum is based on the knowledge that youth learn through active exploration of their environment as well implementing and teaching biblical lessons. Our standards and objectives derive from Alabama Department of Early Childhood Education, Nazaree Curriculum, and Biblical Standards. The standards focus on four main components:
- Relationships and Connections
- Exploration and Critical Thinking (Math and Science)
- Communication (Language and Literacy/Creative Arts)
- Physical Development and Health
NFGC School now offers First Class PreK. Alabama’s high-quality, voluntary First Class PreK program provides effective, high quality early childhood experiences that prepare four-year-olds for school success and lifelong learning. First Class PreK is administered by the Alabama Department of Early Childhood Education.
