Rainbow Christian Preschool & Kindergarten opened its doors in September 1987 with six children, one part-time director, one teacher, one assistant, and a commitment to offer working parents a safe and loving place to entrust their children.

Regular centers include sensory table, blocks, dramatic play, computer, math games and manipulatives, listening center, writing and art materials, puzzles, easels, and various table toys.
