Central Union Church Preschool (CUPS) began on the morning of October 16, 1928, when fourteen children walked in through the garden gates. At the end of the school’s first year of operation, on June 16, 1929, the announcement appeared in the Church’s Sunday bulletin: “The Central Union week-day Kindergarten has closed a very successful
term…”
Even at the earliest start, it was evident that the Church’s current mission statement, “We Engage and Embrace all as we seek to Embody Christ” permeated throughout the “cooperative playschool.” Today, CUPS remains a thriving, vibrant preschool program within the community that strives to serve children and families from various backgrounds. Although the campus has seen many changes over the decades, one thing remains – CUPS is a nurturing, happy space that is steadfast in our commitment to provide quality early childhood education and care.
Central Union Church Preschool is a Christian-based early childhood program that promotes spiritual, cognitive, socio-emotional, and physical growth in a nurturing environment and provides a solid foundation for early learning. The Central Union Preschool program of educating the whole child encourages a life-long enthusiasm for learning and provides a solid foundation for those learning years to come.
The First Annual Golf Tournament is organized to help raise funds for the preschool’s 5 E’s:
• Educational Opportunities,
• Environments,
• Endowment,
• Events, and most importantly,
• Economic Diversity, the tuition assistance program that paves the way for our unique and diverse group of children from across the island.
