The Child Development Center at First Baptist Church opened in 1969 with the purpose of providing a high-quality preschool education for all children no matter their religious beliefs or ethnic origin. The Child Development Center uses a Project Construct Curriculum that promotes learning through active play, planned academic activities, and student-initiated discoveries. The CDC prides itself on integrating the arts into each classroom through weekly music classes, special music events, and cross-curricular lessons. The CDC will be your child’s second home! We offer many free family events, familial support, and the quality early-care and education your child needs to thrive.
