Woodbury Lutheran Preschool & Kindergarten is a place where each child is treasured, scriptural truths and values are taught, and the love of Christ is shared. We are passionate about partnering with parents in nurturing the growth and development of their child while providing each one with the tools necessary for future learning success.
To learn more about Woodbury Lutheran Preschool & Kindergarten:
As a nonprofit outreach of WLC, Woodbury Lutheran Preschool has been loved and respected in our community and the surrounding areas for over 45 years. We believe Christian early education is not just a profession - it is a privilege. We strive to provide an outstanding early learning experience in a welcoming, engaging, child-centered, and family-supportive environment. WLP is a Four Star Parent Aware rated program, excelling in practices that best prepare a child for kindergarten.
Our mission is to share the love and Good News of Jesus Christ, while providing children and families with excellence in early education.
We believe young children learn best by doing. They are active learners who touch, feel, experiment, and create. Our classroom environments are intentionally planned with active learners in mind and to encourage their involvement. Here they can experiment to find out how things work, try out many ideas, rearrange happenings to fit their level of understanding and learn firsthand about God's wonderful world around them. Play provides the foundation for academic learning. It is the preparation children need in order to attain academic success. It is in this kind of environment that young children build their self confidence and begin to believe they are capable learners. Play nurtures children's development in all areas and allows us to achieve the goals of our early education curriculum. Play is the work of young children.
WLP exists to partner with parents in each child's early education, while instilling faith and Christian values, nurturing self-confidence, encouraging all areas of development and providing the readiness skills needed for future learning success. We are devoted to teaching and reaching the whole child - spirit, heart, mind, and body.
One of the most important curriculum goals is to help children become enthusiastic learners. We strive to provide a balance of child-directed play/exploration with appropriate teacher-directed activities to provide a well-rounded experience. Preschool at Woodbury Lutheran instills a strong foundation for future learning success.
Social: Children develop the ability to interact with peers and adults respectfully, form positive peer relationships, and gain increasing awareness of belonging to a family, community, culture, and program.
Emotional: Children learn to feel comfortable in school, trust their new environment, grow in self-esteem, independence, self-control, and develop a positive attitude toward life.
Cognitive: Children become confident learners by acquiring learning skills such as the ability to apply and adapt strategies to solve problems, listen attentively, ask questions, use words to describe thoughts and feelings, and also by engaging in early reading, writing, and math experiences.
Physical: Children develop their large and small muscle skills and develop understanding about healthy and safe living practices.
Spiritual: Bible stories, verses, songs, prayer, and discussion of scriptural truths and values help support children's spiritual development and are an integral part of each child's learning experience.
Small class sizes are intentionally provided to ensure your child has the individual attention he/she needs and deserves on a daily basis.

For over 50 years, Woodbury Lutheran Preschool has served families in our congregation and our community through excellence in early education alongside the opportunity to share the love and good news of Jesus Christ with their children. For a number of years, Kindergarten was an integral part of this work however as the needs and expectations of this grade evolved into a full day program for the school district we decided to focus on preparing children for this important year in their life. The opportunity has once again presented itself for us to provide Kindergarten and we are excited to welcome children back for a kindergarten experience at Woodbury Lutheran.
WLP also offers the following services:
