Mission Statement:
The mission of the Orange Presbyterian Weekday School [OPWS] is to provide a Christian atmosphere where children can learn through play to achieve a secure and comfortable school experience. The children will be exposed to many activities to support the development of his or her cognitive, motor, social, perceptual and communication skills. Philosophy: The OPWS is sponsored by the Orange Presbyterian Church. The school is a ministry of the church and represents the church through its work. It is hoped that this work of the church will foster faith. Play is the children's work. The world is their laboratory, and they are the scientists. Play is research by which they explore themselves and their relationship with the world. - adapted from thoughts by M. Paul Freidberg |
