Our Thrilling Three’s
We review colors, shapes and numbers in our 3-year old program. An emphasis is put on fine and gross motor skills, such as cutting and learning to write their names. We also introduce reading and math readiness skills through the use of well-balanced curriculum.
Our Fantastic Fours
In the 4-year program, we emphasize the letters of the alphabet along with their phonetic sounds and other pre-reading skills. We use the ZOO Phonics program. The children become involved in math skills through counting, graphing, sorting and conversation of numbers through the use of well-balanced curriculum. Our primary goal is to prepare our students for Kindergarten and instill a love for learning.
Our Keen Kindergarteners
In our Kindergarten program, we emphasize developing the whole child, spiritually, academically and physically. Our children learn through a well balanced, age and developmentally appropriate environment. The children will be able to take part in physical activities, learn Spanish, experience field trips and participate in mission programs.

In June of 2013, a gathering of former Boy Scout leaders, Christian and national organizations met to determine if an alternative outdoor adventure program is plausible. From that meeting Trail Life USA, was born.
On Wednesday, January 1, 2014, Trail Life USA (TLUSA) officially launched its outdoor adventure program for boys and young men nationwide. TLUSA is a Christian scouting-like program for boys and young men ages 5-24. The program focuses on outdoor adventure, character, and leadership and is starting with approximately 500 troops in 42 states. As young men progress through the various levels of the Trail Life USA program, they take part in a camping program, leadership development, rank advancements, awards, a trail badge program, community service, summer adventures, spiritual training, and a variety of special program offering.
On Monday, February 3, 2014, Summit Baptist Church held the initial meeting of Trail Life USA Troop GA-0412. Troop GA-0412 began its inaugural year with 18 families, 18 youth members and 15 adult leaders.
Troop GA-0412 derived its troop number from I Timothy 4:12
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
Did you know we have a group of ladies that get together on a regular basis and make quilts for those who are seriously or terminally ill, or are facing a long term recovery period. They also make fidget quilts for Alzheimer’s patients. Our staff delivers these quilts on their visits to the hospitals, rehab centers, home visits and nursing homes. Contact Suzie Callendar for more information if you would like to be a part of the Sew in Love Quilt Ministry. If you know of someone or have a loved one that could benefit from one of these quilts, please call Ruth Morgan at Summit church at 770-975-4595.
