About TLC

Our school was established in 1993 and is sponsored by the Trinity Lutheran Church of Huntley. It is governed by the Board of Education as a non-profit, non-sectarian, non-discriminatory Christian Preschool. We are licensed by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services and meet or exceed the minimum standards set forth by them for preschools. The Department periodically inspects our school to insure that standards of health and safety are met for all children in our care.

 

Philosophy

The TLC Program extends an atmosphere of unconditional love to your child as he/she begins their first learning experience outside of the home.  Our goal is to provide a child-centered, informal environment that promotes all aspects of healthy growth and development.  We also hope to give them a basic understanding of the love that God has for all of his creation. We believe that each child is a special gift from God, each having their own unique gifts and talents.  We believe children need to feel safe, cared for, and nurtured to help them become eager learners.  We support the family unit and encourage a positive self-image to help build the confidence needed to meet life’s new challenges.

 

Religious Instruction

Trinity Lutheran Church

TLC is a Christian school and the children will have activities, read stories, and sing songs about God and Jesus.  Christian love and caring is the basis for our program throughout the year.  The children will celebrate Christian holidays. The four-year-olds will go to the church sanctuary weekly to learn about Jesus’ love through stories, object lessons and skits.  We share Bible stories and activities with a non-denominational approach.
