Through-the-Week School

Our Through-the-Week School (TTWS) offers a half-day program designed to meet the needs of each child—cognitively, socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

Our staff tries to create an environment where learning can happen when the child is ready and at his or her own rate, so much teaching occurs on an individual and small-group basis.

You’ll hear lots of laughter in our hallways! Our goal is to teach children to love learning, and that learning is fun.

Schedule
  • We are a half-day program from 9 AM to 1 PM.
  • Our program runs during the school year from September through May.
  • Classes range from infants (3 months) through Readiness (5-year-olds).
Curriculum

We use the Creative Curriculum, which is developmentally appropriate and is based on theory and research as to how children learn. Children are encouraged to take responsibility in their own learning. Teachers develop themes and lessons based on each child’s interest.

About TTWS

The Knollwood Baptist Church Through-the-Week School began in September 1972 as a mission of the church and community. We have 27 staff members, of whom the majority have four-year degrees and several have master’s degrees. We require teachers to participate in continuing education each year.

Prospective preschool parents

Our facilities allow for the development of large- and small-motor activities as we seek to help each child achieve good learning experiences on his or her own level.

  • Infants (can enroll at 3 months)
  • Young toddlers
  • Older toddlers
  • Two-year-olds
  • Three-year-olds
  • Four-year-olds
  • Readiness for 5-year-olds

The 5-year-old Readiness class offers reading, mathematics, and language materials similar to those used in public school, but with the advantage of a shorter day and more personal attention.
