Bethel Baptist Preschool is a "part-time" Enrichment Program that meets three mornings a week. The school is open on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 9:00am to 1:00pm.
We accept children between the ages of two and five (pre-kindergarten) years and children in diapers are welcome. Children may attend two or three days a week.
We are an outreach Ministry of Bethel Baptist Church and offer a Program designed to prepare children for elementary school in a Christian Environment.
