Welcome to Good Shepherd Lutheran Christian Preschool!  We teach children to love learning and each other in God's world! 

2022 began our 29th year!    
Our flexible ​schedule offers morning preschool for 1,2,3,4,or 5 mornings a week, with days of your choice!
  Contact Heather McIntosh, preschool director, at #814-234-1388 for information about tours to see the classrooms.    LEAVE A MESSAGE ON OUR ANSWERING MACHINE IF SOMEONE IS NOT IN THE OFFICE AND WE WILL RETURN YOUR CALL PROMPTLY.  We also offer 10% tuition discounts for siblings, as well as pastoral families. 
​Tuition assistance is available for families with financial need.



A LITTLE ABOUT OUR PROGRAM -  We have a PLAY-BASED curriculum where children play together for the first hour of class time to promote social interaction with peers and faculty.  We are a CHRISTIAN PROGRAM, reading stories out of Children's Bibles, singing Christian children's songs, praying before we eat, and holding a purposeful prayer time to end each day.  We are ACTIVE INSIDE AND OUT- we go outside every day possible to a huge playground area, or indoors to a larger open space if the weather is inclement.   We have a CONSISTENT STAFF with very little staff turnover.  Daily opportunities for PARENT VOLUNTEERS in the classroom are available throughout the year.  TWO PARENT- TEACHER CONFERENCES are held to update parents on their child's progress (for our older 3-5 year children).  

 See our class offerings for the 2023-24 school year                                               
 
WHAT ABOUT EXTRA TIME THAT MY CHILD CAN STAY AT SCHOOL? 
(Extra time offerings are dependent on the COVID situation next fall)
​

After School Care
Afterschool childcare is available for our Almost 3’s families.  A punch card can be purchased until dismissal time of your choice: 11:30, 11:45, or noon.  Afterschool Childcare begins mid September.  Parents can notify the classroom teacher in the morning if they would like their child to stay for extra time that day.   Any unused time on punch cards will be reimbursed at the end of the school year.

Lunch Bunch Option
Lunch Bunch is available for 3-5 year olds on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons from noon until 2 p.m.    There will be an online sign up tool emailed out monthly for families to sign their child up.  Children must bring their own lunch and drink.  Lunch Bunch begins mid-September.  Peanut and tree nut products (peanut butter sandwiches, etc.) are prohibited in lunches in accordance with our allergy policy.  Lunch Bunch will be held in the downstairs classroom and dismissal is at 2 p.m.
