Central Preschool

A perfect place to learn and grow.

A half-day preschool for children ages 2 and-a-half to five providing a loving environment in small class groups to foster each child's growth and learning.

Philosophy: Our objective is to provide your child with a loving and kind environment in which his/her fullest growth potential will be fostered.

Central Preschool is currently staffed by three teachers and two teacher aides. Administration is by an on-site Program Director and the Central Church Preschool Board. Staffing is based on number of students enrolled and number of classes offered.

What makes us unique

Founded in 1968, we have been providing high quality preschool in the Radford community for over 50 years.
Our class sizes are small, allowing us to reach each student individually and resulting in family atmosphere. Many friendships formed at Central Preschool continue throughout the school years.
We offer a loving Christian environment. Classes participate in a short devotion with the church pastor once a week.
Central Preschool is licensed by the Virginia Department of Social Services.
