Church School
The Reformed Church of New Paltz believes that children are the future and they must be nurtured spiritually. Church School seeks to have children become familiar with the Bible and its stories and to appreciate the community of Christian friendships.
Children from birth through eighth grade are invited to attend. During Sunday Worship, the children are escorted to the Church School, in the Wullschleger Education Building (care nursery is provided in the Social Hall of the Church for children under 2 years old). A variety of learning experiences, creative and varied, provide knowledge and understanding of Christian faith. During this process there are opportunities for fellowship, teamwork, hands on experiences and spiritual enrichment. Each year, both local community based mission projects as well as worldwide projects are also incorporated into the learning experience. Creative, knowledgeable and dedicated persons lead our programs from pre-K through adult. The Care Nursery for infants through 2 year olds is available during Worship Service, with a special program for 2 year olds. |
