First Baptist Church Denbigh - Newport News, Virginia

Philosophy and Purpose
Our Program

We believe that all children are born with the innate ability to learn and that learning begins at birth and continues throughout life. When a child is exposed to the proper stimuli and given the necessary training, he or she will grow up to be a success as well as a productive citizen of society.

We are committed to doing as the scripture tells us to do in Proverbs 22:6:

"Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old he will NOT depart from it."

All children are precious in the sight of God and must be taught godly conduct. This Child Development Center will serve as an auxiliary for the parents of this community as the y proceed in the teaching and training of their children. This ministry of First Baptist Church Denbigh is a ministry to the total person and EVERY child in the community.

The ministry of the Child Development Center has purposed to:

Surround pupils with a God fearing staff who will teach by precepts and examples.
Provide a safe and healthy environment for children ages two and a half through twelve years of age.
Provide activities and experiences that will stimulate and challenge growth and learning appropriate to age.
Assist each child in discovering and developing his/her greatest potentials.
Establish a firm foundation in each child for which he/she can build upon.
Assure that each child will become morally acceptable, emotionally stable, intellectually sound, socially adjustable, physically fit, and spritually fed.
Build an attitude of success and high self-esteem in each child. Through the implementation of the Abeka Curriculum, First Baptist Church Denbigh Child Development Center Will Provide an environment conducive to the expected learning.
