Jack and Jill Preschool in Derby, KS

Preschool Description

In 1967, an idea was formed by some mothers concerned because there was not a place, outside of attending Sunday School, for their children to be with other children before entering kindergarten. Mrs. Miriam Brubaker convinced the Administrative Board at Woodland UMC to allow the use of a room at Fellowship Hall to be used for a preschool to serve the community needs. The preschool opened in the fall of 1968. Now, 40 years later, Jack & Jill is still dedicated to fostering the development of preschool children. Under the direction of a trained staff, the school provides an opportunity for young children to learn through active involvement with their environment.
