Denton Christian Preschool Marketing and Fundraising VISTA

Save to Favorites

Denton Christian Preschool (DCP), located in Denton, TX, provides early education for at-risk children in the community. Denton Christian Preschool was founded in 1970 by a group of concerned citizens, representing 17 different churches in Denton who believed the first few years of a child’s life are the most important. Since then, a group of dedicated professionals and volunteers have taught, fed, loved, and nurtured three and four year olds who are considered to be at-risk for succeeding in public school without early intervention. DCP does not discriminate based upon race, national origin, political belief, disability, color, religion, age, or sex and does not teach a specific theology, but cares for children with love and concern. Five main components make up DCP’s early childhood education program: d evelopmentally appropriate learning activities in a classroom setting , t ransportation to and from school , daily nutritious meals and snacks , medical, dental, speech, and other diagnostic screenings and referrals and monthly parenting events .
