Discover Plainfield Preschool

The Plainfield Christian Church Preschool exists to provide a Christ-centered atmosphere where children will build a foundation for future learning. The best foundation for every child is to know that God loves them!

We work with each child holistically to encourage their developmental potential in the areas of spiritual, emotional, social, intellectual, physical, and creative growth while adhering to the Indiana Early Learning Standards. Our classes meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from 9am-12pm.

We will begin accepting online applications for the 2025-2026 school year at 8:00am on Thursday, January 23. Click on the New Application tile (below) at that time to complete an application. You will receive an email confirmation upon receipt of your application with further instructions.

2-Day Program | Monday & Wednesday | 9:00 am-12:00 pm (Age 2 by May 1)

1-Day Program | Friday | 9:00 am-12:00 pm (Age 2 by August 1)

Our Early Start program is loosely structured in a safe environment in which students enjoy many hands-on activities. The curriculum for this class follows the Indiana Early Learning Standards established by the Indiana Department of Education. At the Early Start level, these standards promote listening and speaking skills, transition skills, social development and engagement with others, and self-regulation skills. Reading, puzzles, simple crafts, songs, games, and circle time are part of the daily schedule and set the foundation for the more structured learning environments of our later programs.

A successful Early Start student communicates well with his/her peers and adults, can focus on a task, transitions from activity to activity well, embraces a routine, and follows a 1 step direction with ease. Our Early Start students also separate easily from his/her main caregiver, and exhibit excitement with respect to interacting with and playing with children his/her own age. 

Monday, Wednesday, & Friday | 9:00 am-12:00 pm

Our Preschool students explore many hands-on opportunities for cognitive, language, physical and social-emotional growth. This three morning a week program is structured to be creative and nurturing. Students establish close relationships with their teachers and develop skills for making new friends. The curriculum for this class follows the Indiana Early Learning Standards established by the Indiana Department of Education. At the Preschool level, these standards promote a love of literacy and reading and the development of fine motor skills necessary for beginning writing activities. Students in this program must be potty-trained and independent in the restroom.

Monday, Wednesday, & Friday | 9:00 am-12:00 pm

Our Pre-Kindergarten students are engaged three days a week in our play-based academic environment. Developmentally appropriate cognitive skills are nurtured at each student’s individual readiness level. Students are exposed to meaningful language activities including letter and sound recognition and mathematics skills such as number recognition, beginning computation and sorting/patterning.  Their authentic experiences will assist in meeting the Indiana Early Learning Standards. These standards ensure success in kindergarten and are set forth by the Indiana Department of Education..

Magnified Mondays | 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Magnified Mondays provide an opportunity for our currently enrolled Pre-K students to see a glimpse of an all-day Kindergarten program through creative exploration and hands-on activities! Students will start our program by unpacking and opening their own lunches, followed by gross motor creative play time. Students will then rotate through two teacher-led stations with their classmates. Areas of focus are Science, Sensory, Gross Motor, Cooking, Literacy, Art, Music/Movement and Character Building/Teamwork.

Enrollment information for this program will be provided to our current students in August and December each year.
