Welcome to my second family, Faith Lutheran School! Working with children and families is a true passion of mine. You are your child’s primary caregiver, and Faith Lutheran preschool teachers feel it is very important to partner with families to provide the best possible outcome for your children. We also understand the value and diversity that each family brings. We recognize the importance of forming a partnership with parents to create a positive experience for all children. The classrooms use a varied curriculum that incorporates both emergent leaning, The Creative Curriculum, play-based, and traditional theme based processes. It is our goal to create a learning environment where children will thrive intellectually and socially--a place where students can plan together, help each other, become proud of their accomplishments, discover ways to settle conflicts, and become critical thinkers, decision makers, and problem solvers. Together, the highly trained teachers engage in ongoing reflective practice to achieve high-quality early childhood standards.

I am committed to providing a loving early learning experience for children and creating a program that emphasizes the importance of social, emotional, cognitive, spiritual and physical development. Enclosed you will find all the forms necessary to apply to our school. Please feel free to call or email if you have questions about our school or any of the information you read. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you in our journey to excellence. From the Heart,

Stephanie Jacobsen Early Childhood Director
