Covid Protocols
Our Christian preschool, an outreach ministry of River City Christian, is a traditional half-day program for children ages 2.5 to 5. We happily serve families from Rancho Cordova, Gold River, Mather, Anatolia, Rosemont, Folsom, Carmichael, Citrus Heights, Fair Oaks and other nearby Sacramento communities. We offer a developmentally appropriate early education program with many exciting opportunities for young children to grow socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually and spiritually. Our school is a warm and caring place where childhood is cherished, learning is by doing, and families are encouraged.

Our Mission

River City Christian Preschool’s mission is to nurture young children and their families according to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a safe and loving environment that will provide a quality Christian foundation and prepare each child for kindergarten.

Our Curriculum

Our developmentally appropriate curriculum is full of fun and hands-on activities based on monthly themes that children can relate to. Drawing on concepts from the Core Knowledge Foundation, each month emphasizes a shape, a color, a set of letters, vocabulary and literature, a Bible memory verse, Bible stories, and a Christian character trait. Our balanced approach includes both teacher-directed and child-centered projects and activities that develop fine and gross motor skills as well as spiritual, social, physical, emotional and academic development. Our hands-on phonics program introduces children to letter and sound recognition and we use the Handwriting without Tears program for developing pre-writing skills.

Everyday your child will enjoy free choice time, creative art, calendar circle, music and movement, small group learning activities, family-style snack, prayer, outside time (weather permitting), and story time.

Our Director

After careers in public relations and business, Dawn Larson Jeske finally found where she really belonged, in preschool! She taught for ten years at Christ Community Preschool, where her children had attended, and earned a Masters in Child Development along the way. In 2005, she was asked to start River City Christian Preschool and has been the director ever since. Her goal is to make a family’s first school experience a nurturing and positive one so that children love learning. The best part about her job is getting hugs from the children every day. Miss Dawn, as she is known, is married to Mr. Tom, the Assistant Director of Some Assembly Required. They live with Fred, an old rescue dog who thinks he is still a puppy and have two absolutely adorable and precious grandchildren.
