Early Life and Education

Early childhood education is a fundamental aspect of any child’s development, imparting social-emotional skills, literacy and numeracy at an early age. Furthermore, it lays the foundation for academic success later in life.

Through small class sizes, teachers foster student interaction and help them acquire new skills that will prepare them for school. Furthermore, these lessons offer children opportunities to build self-confidence, possess positive self-belief, and show respect towards themselves and others.

John Quist’s book Restless Visionaries chronicles how market changes and an evolution in Arminian theology inspired local philanthropists in two Southern towns to promote benevolent reform measures such as tract societies, Sunday schools and temperance movements.
