ENROLL TODAY

Welcome to First Presbyterian Preschool.

FPP offers a well-rounded early childhood education grounded in God’s Word and approached through the lens of His love, cultivating a lifelong love of learning and a vibrant faith for each child.

PLAY

Embracing the early years through both creative and organized play

DISCOVER

Getting to know and appreciate the world God created for his children.

THRIVE

Growing in strength, knowledge, and faith through faith filled leaders.

It's thrilling to me when a bond is created that says, "I trust you." That's when I have to make sure they know I see how unique and capable they are. That's when I get to help them understand that the creator of the universe loves them and formed them with these unique qualities because of the special future he has planned for them; that with God all things are possible.

For fifty years, First Presbyterian Preschool

has provided an exceptional preschool experience for thousands of children in the greater Tacoma area. Key to our longevity and success is our commitment to growth and excellence that, along with the listed characteristics, make FPP a distinctive choice for preschool:

  • FPP embraces a culture where school is not just a place to attend, but a community where each family belongs.
  • We minister as an extension of the family so that the home and preschool can work side by side for the benefit of the child.
  • The longevity of our teaching team speaks to the level of dedication each one brings to our school. Both our teaching team and our administrative team take pride in the programs we offer as well as the service we provide each family.
  • We have a generational impact—we are now seeing children of former preschool students attending our preschool. This means their parents, and often the grandparents, are all participants in our community.
  • With over 160 children this year, FPP is the largest preschool in the Tacoma area.
  • Being voted Best Preschool from South Sound Magazine in 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2020 is validation that our Christ-centered program stands out among area preschools.
