Preschool

Ages 3-5

As a parent of a little one, you’ve probably started looking into preschools and quickly realized how many options there are. Each one promises a good experience, but you’re trying to picture something more specific.

You want them to be known, loved, and cared for, especially as they step into a new environment. You’re also looking for a place that reflects the same faith and Christian values you’re building at home, while giving your child a strong start in learning.

At Plumstead Christian School, our preschool program for ages 3 to 5 is designed with these desires in mind. Your child will be welcomed into a setting where teachers guide them through daily routines, introduce early academic concepts in age-appropriate ways, and create space for them to learn more about God’s truth.

Learning Environment

From the moment your child enters the classroom, they step into a setting designed with young learners in mind. Each part of their day supports intellectual curiosity, builds social awareness, and reflects a consistent Biblical worldview.

A Nurturing Atmosphere Rooted in Faith

At PCS, faith is part of everyday life. Through Bible time, prayer, and teacher-led conversations, children begin to understand how to treat others and take part in a community shaped by Christian values.

Teachers model these values throughout the day, guiding students in both learning and faith formation.

A Strong Start in Early Learning

Students are introduced to early academic concepts through hands-on, multi-sensory experiences.

  • Learning centers focused on phonics, writing, and early math
  • Circle time with Bible lessons, calendar, and group discussion
  • Play-based activities that build vocabulary, coordination, and problem-solving
  • Small group interaction that encourages participation and collaboration
  • Large group instruction that prepares students for kindergarten and beyond

Preschool Leadership

Our preschool program is guided by a dedicated Preschool Director, Jennifer Weaver, who works closely with teachers to oversee curriculum, support classroom instruction, and create a consistent experience for families across each stage of the program. Families are welcome to reach out directly with questions about preschool placement, schedules, or the admissions process by contacting Mrs. Weaver at jweaver@plumsteadchristian.org or (215) 822-0187.

Teachers keep parents informed through regular updates and Glow & Grow reports in the Fall, helping you understand how your child is developing as the year progresses. In addition, we conduct formal evaluations, to provide a clearer picture of every student’s readiness, including a mid-year assessment and progress report that helps guide families on next steps.

An Intentional Classroom Experience

Each preschool classroom is designed to feel engaging and easy to navigate for young learners.

  • Cubbies for personal belongings at the entrance
  • Tables sized for each age group, with space for small group work
  • Dramatic play centers, such as kitchen areas, puppets, doll houses, trains, blocks, and reading corners
  • A sink and in-room bathroom for convenience, safety, and personal hygiene

As children move from Preschool 3s to PreK, classroom size and structure gradually increase to match their growth and readiness.

A Thoughtful Approach to Safety and Technology

The preschool program is part of a larger K–5 building designed with both safety and structure in mind. From the moment your child arrives, every detail is thoughtfully considered to create an environment where they feel secure, supported, and ready to learn. At the same time, technology in the classroom is approached with care, and only incorporated when it intentionally enhances the learning experience.

  • Secure K–5 building with monitored access
  • Right-sized classes that support attentive care

  • Technology integrated in focused, age-appropriate ways

Families connect with teachers each day at drop-off, as preschool students are walked directly into the classroom. We have established communication systems, including daily folders with updates and information, weekly newsletters, and emails for important updates.

Your family will also get to be part of school life through events and shared experiences. Seasonal gatherings such as Preschool Harvest Night, themed events like Dr. Seuss Family Night, special events like Mother’s Day Tea, and other activities throughout the year create opportunities for connection among students, parents, and teachers.

Middle School

A Private Christian Middle School in the Heart of Bucks County

Grades 6-8

Raising leaders in Christ-centered excellence

Middle school is a time of growth and exploration. Your child is gradually becoming independent as they discover new interests and passions. At this stage, they are learning to balance more responsibilities in school and at home. You are aware of the challenges they face, and you desire for them to succeed as they continue to develop physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually.

As a parent, you envision a warm, welcoming community where they can grow in Christ-centered values. At the same time, you recognize how important it is for your child to stay balanced and excel in his or her learning.

STEAM learning

We create opportunities for students to learn through projects and experiments in our cutting-edge science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics program.

Interscholastic athletics

We hone our students’ athletic skills through on and off-season training with Christian coaches. PCS sports teams participate in the Bicentennial Athletic League (BAL), competing with private and public schools in PA.

Fine arts programs

We foster creativity and talent through festivals, competitions, special honors courses, and experienced fine arts instructors. PCS has a rich program in visual and performing arts, allowing students to participate in select ensembles.

Developing Independent Learners

At Plumstead Christian School, your middle schooler will have many opportunities to develop a lifelong love of learning. Our program encourages learning through exploration. Your child will be inspired to ask thoughtful questions and encouraged to use critical thinking skills to solve real life problems.

Below, you will find an overview of what our middle school program offers, including:

Preparation for Upper School

School Culture

A Christ-Centered Community

Middle school is a season where your child can ask questions about who they are and what they stand for. This is a crucial period where your child will be influenced by outside forces. Their environment will impact how they develop their moral compass and character.

Plumstead Christian School offers a Christ-like, caring community where students are honored and respected as their unique selves. As a private Christian middle school, students are encouraged to participate in activities to build their faith, such as:

  • Weekly small group meetings
  • Prayers and devotionals
  • Engaging in the community
  • A time to reflect on how they can grow spiritually

Christ-centered values are woven throughout our curriculum and supporting activities, helping students to see how character development can impact their lives and the people around them.

Plumstead Christian School sponsors a variety of Middle School community events that help students develop healthy friendships, including field trips, service projects, prayer walks, school dances and sports competitions. Our community is large enough for students to appreciate diversity and build relationships, but small enough so that everyone is seen, recognized, and valued.

Growth through mentorship and partnering with parents

PCS teachers provide opportunities for middle schoolers to grow academically and spiritually. Our small class sizes allow for teachers to celebrate each student’s strengths and help them understand and improve their educational gaps. We partner with parents, allowing them to join us in the vision of raising Christ-like future leaders.

PCS believes in leading students with love and grace, guiding them through wisdom and restoration.

“The three years my daughter has spent in Middle School at PCS have been the most beneficial and rewarding years of her academic career. She is thriving both academically and spiritually. She knows she is valued as a student and person in the PCS community. She has built positive, lasting friendships and is going into high school, prepared and confident.”

Rigorous learning rooted in biblical principles

Middle School is more than just a bridge between Lower School and Upper School — it’s a time where your child develops the foundation for their future study habits, personal interests, and academic pursuits. Finding a school that challenges your child academically, while setting the right pace with the right amount of guidance, will set them up for middle school success and beyond.

At Plumstead Christian School, we offer challenging academics that encourage independent thinking and exploration:

  • Mastery of core subjects: Bible, English, Math, Science, History & Geography
  • Honors courses: Providing advanced academic curriculum for exceptional learners
  • Curriculum with biblical integration: Honoring God through the work they do
  • Emphasis on critical thinking and writing: Building blocks for high school preparation
  • Inquiry-based learning: Empowering students to ask thoughtful questions in their pursuit of knowledge

Raising leaders of tomorrow

Along with growing towards independence, PCS has several programs to hone leadership skills. There are opportunities to participate in:

  • Student Council
  • Student Ambassador Program
  • Community service inside the school and through outside associations
  • Small group discussions and collaborations

Educating and enriching your child holistically

Middle school students are encouraged to engage in clubs, electives, and other co-curricular activities that provide a rich learning experience where they can explore their passions and build their identity. We provide students with the resources to pursue their interests, allowing each student to reach his or her full potential.

Student clubs and groups

Community and learning are integrated into our student clubs such as Bible studies, the “Lunch Bunch” Library Reading Group, drama club, sports club, and more.

Upper School-Prep

Equipping students for the next step

Our curriculum is designed to encourage preparation for Upper School, propelling students forward in pursuing their innate passions. During the spring of 8th grade, middle school students attend an orientation that will help them know what to expect in our upper school. This orientation not only helps students transition into their freshmen year, but can set them up for success in upper school and beyond.

Study skill classes are available for 7th and 8th-grade students to sharpen skills and practice goal-setting. We foster independence and responsibility by providing:

  • Teacher support: Mentorship and guidance that encourages resourcefulness
  • Self-management opportunities: Learning how to communicate with teachers to receive feedback and track progress
  • Honors courses: Encouraging middle school students to challenge themselves with more difficult coursework

Portrait of a Graduate

Portrait of a Graduate

Educating Students for an Unknown Future

“Better is the end of a thing than its beginning” Ecclesiastes 7:8

The world is constantly changing. Some of these changes, such as technological advances, have rendered careers obsolete while opening the door to countless other exciting opportunities. It is likely that our current kindergarteners will step into a world thirteen years from now filled with opportunities we cannot even imagine.

How do we prepare our children for such an unknown future? Without a doubt, our school needs to be aware of and responsive to these changes from a pedagogical and social perspective. We also need to remain committed to teaching virtues and life skills vital to the life-long success of our students regardless of the inevitable and unknown changes that face us. These constants will help our children navigate our world regardless of how the landscape changes. We summarize these virtues and life skills in our “Portrait of a Graduate.” Our Portrait of a Graduate lists core competencies that we believe will lead to each student’s success in an unknown future. This list is aspirational in nature. We hope that every student masters these life skills and possesses the virtues listed when they graduate from PCS, and we train our faculty, design curriculum, and develop programs to facilitate this maturation process in our students.

Our graduates grow in virtue and in these critical life skills within a supportive community – edified, encouraged, and equipped through relationships with supportive peers and capable adults who love them and love Jesus. When students face challenges and opportunities within such an environment they grow in faith, virtue, and knowledge. People who possess these core competencies stand out from their peers, are highly sought after by employers, and are able to lead and serve effectively. In this way, no matter the students’ vocational interests, these virtues and life skills will contribute to their quality of life and success in whatever God calls them to do.

Each year, Our Headmaster holds a workshop for the seniors comprised of sample interview questions and important do’s and don’ts during an interview. Following the workshop, students are invited to take part in several one-on-one interviews with patron parents. Patron interviewers give feedback to the students in multiple areas such as vocal volume and inflection, body language, their handshake, and answer content. This is a valuable tool for preparing for college and job interviews!
