Grace Baptist to Offer Preschool All Year Long

Grace Baptist Christian Academy on Oakhill Avenue in Attleboro has offered preschool classes since 2004, but now the school is expanding the program.

The preschool program at operated only during regular school hours and was closed for summers, holidays and snow days. Now, however, the new Amazing Grace Preschool will operate year- round including during school holidays and snow days.

"To this point we have focused our energies on our K-12 Academy," Pastor Jeff Bailey said. "Having completed our tenth year, our standardized test scores indicate that we have established a quality academic program here at GBCA.

"While there is always room for improvement, we feel we are now well prepared to expand our ministry to families by developing a year-round preschool program," he added.

The preschool consists of a non-sectarian, Christian program that includes introductory phonics and mathematics, Bible instruction, and constructive play, according to the school.

Music will also now be included in the preschool program and will be offered by Music Director Kristy Yoakum. The school will also offer individual private piano lessons to kids ages 4 and 5, for a small fee. 

Tuition is $25.00 a day and classes begin a 8 am. Before school care is provided at no extra cost to families, but after-school care includes an hourly charge. 

Classes at the Amazing Grace Preschool will begin Monday, Aug. 22.
