Faith-based early education in Glendale
Growing skills.
Growing character.
Early childhood education includes more than letters and numbers. It is also where children practice listening, work through frustration, and begin to see themselves as capable. Our Glendale classrooms make room for movement, exploration, and steady encouragement as these skills grow.
Faith is part of those everyday experiences. A short Bible story about helping others can lead to helping a friend clean up. Prayer before a meal gives children a way to express gratitude. Teachers connect Christian teaching with words and actions young children can understand.
A child does not need to get everything right the first time. Clear expectations, patient guidance, and opportunities to try again help children practice kindness, honesty, respect, and self-control over time.
Explore our curriculum & daily scheduleLearning and Christian character
Play with purpose.
Learning that connects.
The teacher helps turn a familiar activity into a new discovery: introducing a word, asking a question, or helping children talk through a problem. Early learning and social development happen together.
Build, count, and try again
Blocks and sorting activities invite children to explore number, size, and patterns. Rebuilding a fallen tower also gives them practice with patience, persistence, and problem-solving.
Tell a story and listen
Picture books, conversation, songs, and pretend play develop vocabulary and listening. Children practice waiting for a turn to speak and noticing what a friend has to say.
Create, move, and explore
Art, hands-on materials, music, and outdoor play support creativity and coordination. Following a few steps in a project gives children a chance to practice attention and follow-through.
Put faith into practice
Short Bible stories, simple memory verses, prayer, and worship songs introduce God’s love. Teachers help children use gentle hands, tell the truth, and practice forgiveness in real classroom moments.

Steady routines.
Patient guidance.
Arrival, group time, learning centers, outdoor play, meals, and rest give the day a familiar rhythm. Teachers prepare children for what comes next and use simple directions suited to their age.
When sharing is hard or feelings run high, teachers help children find words, ask for help, and try a different choice. Calm correction and clear boundaries give children something they can practice: “Use kind words,” “Let’s try gentle hands,” or “Tell me what happened.”
These habits support kindergarten readiness alongside early literacy and math. Learning to cooperate, follow directions, and keep working on a task matters as children move into the next stage.

Schedule a Glendale tourDo families have to attend Faith Bible Church to enroll?
No. Families do not need to attend Faith Bible Church. We welcome families from different backgrounds who are comfortable with an openly Christian school, including Bible teaching, prayer in Jesus’ name, and worship.
What does faith-based education look like for young children?
Short Bible stories, prayer, simple memory verses, and child-friendly worship songs introduce Christian teaching. Teachers connect those lessons with everyday kindness, honesty, gratitude, and forgiveness during learning and play.
What if our family is new to church or Christian faith?
You are welcome to ask questions and read our Statement of Faith before enrolling. Teaching uses simple words, stories, and songs suited to young children. A tour gives you a chance to discuss our beliefs and the classroom approach with the team.
How do teachers guide behavior and social skills?
Teachers set clear expectations, use calm correction, and help children practice respectful words and gentle hands. Children learn to name feelings, take turns, ask for help, and repair relationships after conflict.
Does learning through play prepare children for kindergarten?
Purposeful play develops language, early literacy, number sense, and problem-solving. Listening, cooperating, following directions, and persisting with a task also support kindergarten readiness. Activities are suited to the child’s stage of development.
