Bellefonte Playschool at Faith Church

preschool for young students ages 3 and 4

The Bellefonte Playschool, a state licensed and church-owned preschool, exists for the purpose of enriching the lives of children. We operate during the school year only.


The school provides a supervised environment of socialization through play and through the teaching of basic school-readiness skills. Our highly dedicated staff believes that learning at the pre-school age is best accomplished through fun, hands-on activities and through play and discovery.
