The FBC CDC Mission: Nurturing Spiritual, Academic, and Emotional Growth

The FBC CDC is committed to developing the "whole child." Our purpose is to provide every child with a joyful,
caring Christian atmosphere that encourages growth across all aspects of their young lives.

We believe that a strong foundation is built through a curriculum that supports comprehensive development, ensuring your child is
well-prepared for their next academic challenge while knowing they are cherished and loved by God.

Our Objective: To know God, gain knowledge, expand interests, improve motor skills, regulate emotions, and grow in the ability to work and play cooperatively with others.
