At the time of registration, you can select Summer Care for the entire summer (June, July, and August) or just part of the summer with Session 1, 2 or 3. We cannot hold spots for the summer months since the program is popular and vacancies are limited. Tuition cannot be refunded for vacations.

​

*IMPORTANT NOTE:  

Summer Fun spots are in high demand!  We will ALWAYS offer our Summer spots to our families enrolled in the following school year first, then we will extend the offer to Alumni who GRADUATED from our PreK 4 program next and FUMCA alumni members.  If space then, allows,  we will take Alumni first come first served.  New Preschool families enrolling for the school year, will be offered a Pre-Summer Fun spot option, to secure their enrollment in our Preschool Program.

SUMMER SWIM LESSONS

With an outdoor pool located on campus, Summer Fun at FUMP is proud to offer swim lessons to children ages 2yrs - 6yrs. With certified instructors, children will focus on becoming acclimated to the water and will learn basic water safety and skills. Parents are welcome to come and view their child during their designated lesson time from a private viewing room. Participants must be enrolled in FUMP's Summer Fun program.

MUSIC

Offered five days a week. At least three performances are given  throughout the school year. Gross motor skills as well as team concepts are  necessary in the execution of this activity. 

SPANISH

First United Methodist incorporates a "whole-language"  approach as our Spanish classes reflect what is currently being taught in our  curriculum. Students are introduced to words and songs in Spanish in an effort to  gain confidence and familiarity with a second language. 

CHAPEL

Occurs every Tuesday. All preschool classes meet in the  sanctuary and listen to the First United  Methodist Pastor speak about a Christian value that can  assist in the character development of young children. 

GODLY PLAY

Taught every Wednesday to each class. Godly Play is a  method for teaching children how Bible stories connect with your child's experiences and relationship with goodness. Godly Play respects the innate  spirituality of children and encourages curiosity and imagination in experiencing  the mystery and joy of faith. 

Our open-door policy extends beyond the walls of our building. FUMP is proud to be the only Central Louisiana Preschool and Childcare facility partnered with WatchMeGrow Video Streaming which allows parents and grandparents to stay connected to their children while they’re here, and to rest assured knowing that they’ve placed their children in the best care possible.
