Dear Friends of First Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Preschool,
Greetings, from the happiest place on Earth. Gazing at the large Mondale pine tree in front of First Presbyterian Church, it is symbolic of an exciting journey that began as a seed and has already sprouted into a tiny sapling. The creation of a school to serve children beyond their time at the Preschool was actually an idea and request by parents many times over – and this past fall was the providential time to turn it into a reality. The COVID-19 pandemic has turned education as we knew it on its head, and many of us did not want to return to the large masses of kids in public school. So rather than homeschool in isolation, a group of families have come together to give our children an opportunity to continue learning in-person in the richness of the Reggio Emilia-inspired model that is First Presbyterian Preschool (FPP.))
We are so honored and excited to tell you that First Presbyterian Elementary School (FPE) is hosting its inaugural class of 30 wonderful students this academic year in grades 1 thru 6. School began on September 8, 2020 and we have not had a single closure due to COVID transmission or infection.
