Preschool

Skill development for the preschool age child has become the cornerstone for the school year. The Missouri Early Learning Standards are incorporated throughout the curriculum for children 3 years through pre-k.

Horizon Club

Horizon Club is our program for children who are in kindergarten through 5th grade. We offer both a before and after school program as well as a summer program for these children.

SUMMER CAMP

The Preschool summer camp children will explore different weekly/bi-weekly themes. The children will learn about and explore each theme through arts and crafts, math, science, and literacy activities. The preschool summer camp children will also participate in water play, special theme days, many visitors as well as pool and park day field trips.

The school aged “HORIZON” summer camp children will explore a summer theme which will focus on a different area of that theme each week. The children will participate in activities such as cooking, games, sports, STEM, art, geocaching, water play and more. The summer camp children will also participate in water play, special themes days, many visitors as well as pool day and “other” field trips.

All summer camp children will also participate in the First Christian Church Vacation Bible School.


“First Step Preschool is amazing! All of the teachers there are so loving and caring! I never worry when I drop my child off because I know she is in the best hands. She is also learning so much; my husband and I couldn’t be happier!”

“We enrolled our daughter at First Step Preschool when we moved to Troy in October 2018 and I am sad that she will be leaving to go to kindergarten next year! Everyone here is so kind and I really feel like they have all helped my daughter come out of her shell. She has learned so much here and all of it has been learned in a fun, creative way! The hours are so convenient for my and my husband’s work schedule. We love First Step Preschool!”

“I have been a parent with First Step Preschool on and off since 2004. My children have received the best care and education from FSP and have been well prepared for their entrance into kindergarten. I would highly recommend FSP to any parent looking for a high quality, Christian-based preschool where the curriculum is in collaboration with the Troy R3 school system, the teachers are top notch and take year-round continuing education courses and most importantly where your child will be loved and cared for beyond measure.”
