A loving, inclusive Christian church in Greenville, SC

2023-2024 Preschool Calendar

2023-2024 Parent Handbook

The ARBC Preschool Education Program offers a nurturing preschool and nursery for ages six weeks through four years old. Our program offers a combination of curriculum designed to meet the spiritual, social, physical, emotional, and intellectual needs of each child. We include age appropriate educational content as well as physical education, music classes, and a weekly visit to the sanctuary for chapel time.

Our lead teachers in the two, three, and four year rooms hold Bachelor Degrees in Education with many years of classroom teaching experience. Most of our teachers have been in this program over five years.

The Preschool program is open from 7:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m., year round, Monday through Friday. We follow Greenville County Schools for inclement weather.

Our Vision Statement: We promise to provide a safe, Christian environment that is loving and committed to the needs of the children and parents. We are an Educational Program where children are encouraged to grow spiritually, developmentally, socially, and emotionally. We want all children in our program to reach their full potential.

The annual non-refundable registration fee is $250.00.

We typically have a waiting list for all our classrooms. To be added to this list, please fill out the Weekday Preschool Wait List form. There is a waitlist fee of $50/child or $75/family if you are signing up more than one family member at a time. Use our giving platform to make your payment. Your waitlist application will be finalized only when payment is received. You can track your spot on the waitlist through your family’s portal link emailed from Waitlist Plus. It is important to know that these lists are fluid and are likely to change. Our system will automatically email you to confirm your waitlist needs every three months. If you would like to stay on the waitlist past one year, you will need to pay a yearly waitlist fee. After we have confirmed a place for your child, we will call you to arrange a tour of our facility.

COVID-19 Protocols

As your child’s safety and wellbeing is our top priority, we have been working to ensure that ARBC is as safe as possible. Amid COVID-19 concerns, we have used the CDC, DHEC, and DSS guidelines, along with the expertise of medical professionals and other licensed facilities. At this time teachers and staff will not be required to wear masks. We will continue to follow the recommendations of these sources and if transmission rates rise in our community or preschool, we may need to make changes.

We are following DHEC’s guidance for COVID-19 cases in a childcare setting:

  • Parents will be notified of a COVID case in their child’s class since he/she is most likely considered a close contact.
  • If less than 10% of ARBC Preschool’s population has tested positive or is showing COVID symptoms, we will not close down classrooms and quarantine close contacts.
  • If more than 10% of ARBC Preschool’s population has tested positive or is showing COVID symptoms, we will use the Test-to-Stay guidelines.
