We believe the spirit of the Lord is active and present within our school and classroom, and we are grateful for the opportunity to share this with your children.
Our Story
Berean Preschool + Kindergarten opened its doors in 1982 as the Berean Education Center with one simple goal: to provide families with a quality, faith-based early learning experience. More than four decades later, we’ve grown in size and programming, but our mission remains the same. We feel honored to partner with families as we help set their children up for joy-filled success in learning.
We are licensed by the Minnesota Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) and the Minnesota Department of Health.
Our team is made up of full-time and part-time teachers, assistants, and classroom aides. All staff meet DCYF qualification standards and receive ongoing training as part of their continued professional development.
Teaching Guide
God created every child with unique gifts and talents and we hold that thought in the forefront of our minds as we shape our lessons and classrooms. Our learning is rooted in play. Classrooms are filled with engaging centers for children to explore and teachers are found engaging in activities alongside the children.
Each day includes large- and small-group lessons, free play, art, stories, music, literacy, small motor work, math, science, and movement. Teachers plan with Minnesota’s Early Childhood Indicators of Progress in mind, using daily observations to guide, adjust, and create lessons that support each child’s growth.
