Willow Glen United Methodist Church
Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten

"The ARK"

Our preschool is a ministry of the Willow Glen United Methodist Church. Concern is expressed for the total child with emphasis on God's love and care for each of us. Our Christian program is designed to meet each child's social, physical, cognitive and spiritual needs. We want our children to know that they are loved and that they are special. This is their school. With God's love, their horizons are unlimited.

We invite you to visit our little school. Tours can be arranged by calling our director Miss Lorene at (408) 294-6072.
