PreSchool COVID-19 Update
During our extended closure, we would like to make every effort to stay in touch with our preschool family. We will be adding classroom newsletters to our webpage so that families may receive encouragement from our teachers, as well as find activities and bible references to help us work through this unusual time. Please, check this page often, as well as follow our Facebook posts by CUMC Pre-School. Please, feel free to contact us with any questions, comments, or prayer requests. We miss everyone greatly and look forward to returning to preschool. In the meantime, we are praying for each one of you!
