This private school program is typically provided for the child who turns 5 right after the school year begins (September 1st). The First Protestant School of New Braunfels recommends that students in this program have completed a pre-k program here at FPS or another day school.
We desire to provide our students with an authentic kindergarten private school experience. Your child will spend their morning (8:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m.) involved in a structured curriculum taught by a certified kindergarten teacher.
Regular student attendance in this class is crucial and will provide your child with the routine schedule he/she will need when moving to “Big Kid School.” This 5-year-old program will focus on mastering language development, literacy, reading, mathematics, science, social studies, creative arts, social and emotional development, and physical health and safety. This is a wonderful class to transition your child into a public or private school kindergarten. As part of the extended kindergarten program (12:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m.), the students will also have the opportunity to learn through well-planned learning centers that allow for child choice and self-directed play, small groups, and supportive teaching designed to ensure academic success.
My name is Stephanie Eitzenhefer. I have been in education going on 8 years. I started at FPS in January 2024. I absolutely love teaching. My passion is to get children ready for kindergarten. Not only academically, but also emotionally. A little about me. I’m a small town girl who was raised in southern Illinois. I met my husband there. He is currently active duty Air Force. We have lived several places in the US, and have lived in Texas for over 4 years. My husband and I have 2 boys Landon 13, and Nolan 11. I’m excited to start the school year and get to know your child.
Hello. My name is Ms. Racheal. I grew up in a small town with a big family. I have been with the FPS program since of March 2020. I love working with kids to see them learn and grow!
