Dear Family, Here at Bethel Baptist, your child will be actively engaged in hands-on activities, not just paper work! We explore God’s wonderful creation by touching, categorizing, organizing and synthesizing. Your preschooler will practice early literacy skills and classroom manners to prepare for either public or private school. Children are a gift from the Lord. He has entrusted us with their nurture and care. You will find our staff to be caring, and well-trained, always striving to provide a safe, child-oriented environment in which your preschooler will thrive. We look forward to working with your child and your family! Sincerely, Lib Hall

Registration dates are as follows: The following items are due at registration: Registration form, registration and supply fee, first month’s tuition, birth certificate, contract, and student/family directory authorization. Bethel Baptist Nursery School was founded in 1976 by Miss Betsy Mitchell (Mrs. Fred), a church member, former York County teacher, and the mom of two preschoolers. Mrs. Mitchell and her husband, Fred (the coach of Tabb High School football for many years), hand built original play and learning equipment. The Mitchells also served the Tabb community for those years as founding leaders of Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Their daughters Heather and Megan were the Nursery School's first two preschoolers! Today we have the 2nd generation! Children of those first classmates now bring their little ones to our bright, expanded classrooms at Bethel Baptist Weekday Preschool. From one class to six we've grown and, in 1984, Mrs. Lib Hall enrolled her daughter Katie, then later her daughter Susan. Twenty-three years later, after teaching in private and public schools, and having founded another local preschool, she became the Director of Bethel Baptist Weekday Preschool.
The Tidewater Association For Early Childhood Education is a non-profit organization that provides support and training for Child-care and Elementary school teachers and children in the Tidewater area. Our organization is made up of early childhood educators that are dedicated to improving the quality of programs for children from birth through third grade.
Since 1948 the Southern Early Childhood Association has brought together preschool, kindergarten, and primary teachers and administrators, caregivers, program directors, and individuals working with and for families, to promote quality care and education for young children. http://www.southernearlychildhood.org/
