Meet Our Teachers
Each First Presbyterian Preschool teaching team member has experience in early childhood education and meets all licensing requirements of the State of Florida and the Association for Early Learning Leaders, as well as the NAC (National Accreditation Commission for Early Care and Education Programs). All staff participate in a continuous program of in-service training (minimum of 20 hours of in-service training annually) to remain in tune with the needs of today's families and children.
