Program: 
At First English Lutheran Preschool, children are unique individuals who learn through play in a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment. Our teachers are knowledgeable in the field of child development, provide appropriate developmental experiences and opportunities for each child through careful planning and observations. First English Lutheran Preschool’s play-based philosophy enriches the whole child, including social, emotional, physical, cognitive, creative, and spiritual development. All families are welcome at FELP.

We utilize the HighScope Curriculum. Play-based, child-centered, and grounded in research, the HighScope Curriculum features active learning at its core. In a HighScope classroom, children are guided to explore, interact, and exercise their creative imagination through purposeful play. Well-prepared teachers support and extend each child’s learning based on their developmental levels, so children enter school ready and eager to learn.
Special Events: Special events are varied. They may include special guests, Curriculum Night, Christmas Pageant, Easter Egg Hunt, end of year picnic, visit from Lou's Pet Shop, or planned family field trips/park playdates. Parents are always welcome when their schedule allows them to visit the classroom and participate.
Certification: FELP is licensed with the State of Michigan. Please call the church office (313-884-5040) to arrange a visit.
