Surf City Christian Child Development Preschool

Surf City Christian Child Development Preschool serves children ages 18 months through kindergarten in a faith-based environment that blends Christian values with academics, creative exploration, and nurturing community. The school emphasizes whole-child development—spiritual, social, emotional, and academic—through intentional programming including chapel, music, art, Spanish, physical education, and outdoor learning labs.

Philosophy

Surf City Christian seeks to foster the development of the whole child - social, emotional, academic and spiritual. We strive to build character through the embodiment of the fruits of the spirit while igniting a love for learning aimed at preparing children for academic success. Faith is naturally woven into daily experiences through chapel, prayer, scripture, and the Fruit of the Spirit, helping children understand God's love in meaningful, age-appropriate ways.
