Spiritual

We want every child who attends Cypress Christian Daycare to gain knowledge of God through His Word and experience God's goodness through the world around them to discover God's purpose for their lives. We sing songs of worship, focus on a Bible story each week, and pray together.

Assessments

Cypress Daycare students in the 4 & 5 year old classrooms are assessed in January.  These assessments cover a wide range of skills and help us determine improvement areas for your child.  Parent / Teacher Conferences are offered (if needed) and provide an opportunity for questions about each student's progress and kindergarten readiness.
