About the Day School

First Baptist Christian Day School is a morning preschool, in session from 9:30 AM until 12:30 PM each weekday from September-May.  It meets at First Baptist Church Springfield at 7300 Gary Street, Springfield, VA.  It was established as a ministry of First Baptist Church to provide a Christian atmosphere and environment for the physical, emotional, mental, social, and spiritual development of your child.  

 

Our goal is to meet the individual needs of each child in a loving, secure, Christian environment while growing their love of learning through play. We are a play-based learning school which also provides instruction with “Learning Without Tears” curriculum.  This curriculum allows the students to learn to identify and build and write letters in a fun way that encourages fine motor skills while learning to identify letters and sounds.
