About the Provider

Description: Noah’s Ark Preschool and Kindergarten, a ministry of Bethlehem Lutheran Church, opened the door to the children and families of the community September 2000 with director, Jan Wilton, and 3 teachers; Wendy Hicks, Karen Reagan, and Jodi Dickerman. The school began with morning classes and soon realized that families of the surrounding neighborhood were in need of a preschool that could offer a full-time and flexible schedule. Currently the school offers families the flexibility to choose the days and hours that best meets their needs from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Each family is given options for their child. Noah’s Ark staff provides an environment that supports the home and needs of the child. Director and teachers strive to resource, encourage, inspire and motivate parents in the faith formation of their children. Noah’s Ark Full Day Kindergarten began in 2004, for the purpose of meeting the needs of families who wanted a full day Bible based learning experience for their kindergarten children. By the end of the kindergarten year, the children are enthusiastically reading and receive a children’s Bible at the annual kindergarten graduation.
