Our Mission Statement
Hibben Preschool provides developmentally appropriate education within a safe and loving Christian environment.
2012-2013 Enrollment
Enrollment for the 2012-2013 school year will begin on January 3. Follow the links on the right side of this page to download the 2012 Enrollment Application, as well as information on Priority Enrollment and/or Open Enrollment. Priority Enrollment is available to currently enrolled children and their siblings, as well as Hibben church members. All others may enroll through Open Enrollment.
Immunization Policy
Hibben Preschool requires all enrolled children to have a current SC Certificate of Immunization on file in the preschool office. We do not accept medical, religious or other exemptions.
What We Offer
Hibben Preschool offers preschool and 4K classes for children who are ages 1-4 as of September 1. All classes begin at 9:00 a.m. and end at 12:30 p.m. Each class follows a daily routine that includes playground time and lunchtime, in addition to a variety of group and independent activities that mixed learning with fun. The curriculum is developmentally appropriate to each class, and the teachers all incorporate a variety of Christian education activities. The day can be extended with optional after-school classes, which currently include karate, dance, JumpBunch, Going Bananas Over Books (literacy), and Animals Around the World (science).
Preschool
One, two and three year olds attend 2, 3 or 5 mornings per week. There are separate classrooms for each age group. Daily activities alternate between creative play and more structured activities, and include table time, circle time, activity centers, lunch, playground time, music, stories and crafts. Weekly chapel time is also included for three year olds who attend 3 or more days per week, and all classes participate in weekly music class.
Kindergarten: 4K
Four year olds attend either 4 or 5 mornings per week. The curriculum is based on SC state standards, with emphasis on math and English/language arts, and children continue to attend music and chapel each week. The strong foundation provided the 4K classes prepares students to successfully transition into a wide variety of public, private, charter and magnet schools for the elementary grades.
