About Christian Pre-School
at Dobbs Ferry Lutheran Church

Christian Preschool has a long history in the Rivertown's from its opening in 1975.
We are proud to be celebrating 50 YEARS!
Christian Preschool provides a strong foundation for children ages 2-4 to explore play, social interactions, learn & strengthen skills in sharing, taking turns, conflict resolution, patience, etc. and assist in the preparation for their future.
At Christian Preschool we create a positive school environment where the children have a daily rotating schedule through our spacious and various rooms during the school day (such as: discovery, art, free-play, indoor gym, music, playground, snack, etc.)
We encourage independence and help each child strive toward mastering his or her individual skills and abilities.
We believe that no two children acquire skills at the same time or in the same way.
We know that children learn while playing. Playtime is the time for socialization, experimentation, and discovery. It is a time for doing the necessary "work" of childhood.
Here at CPS children feel comfortable in an environment of mutual respect. We encourage them to love and respect others.
Our curriculum includes: Handwriting Without Tears, Scholastic News, our Christian Preschool curriculum of monthly themes, topics, letters, shapes, animals, rhyming work, number sense, etc.
