What a Day Looks Like in Our Preschool Classroom

Ms. Danielle

At Truth Preschool Academy, we believe every day should be filled with learning, laughter, and meaningful connections. For our 3–4-year-old learners, the classroom is more than a place to prepare for kindergarten—it’s a safe and inspiring space where curiosity is encouraged, friendships blossom, and social-emotional skills grow alongside academic abilities.

A Warm and Welcoming Start

Your child’s day begins with a cheerful greeting from our teachers, setting a positive tone from the moment they walk in. We give each child time to settle in, say goodbye to family members, and choose an engaging morning activity. This gentle start helps children transition smoothly into the school day while building a sense of independence.

Structured Learning Through Play

Morning activities are designed to balance structure with creativity. Small-group lessons focus on early literacy, math, and problem-solving skills, but they’re presented in playful ways—counting during snack preparation, identifying colors during art, or practicing new vocabulary during storytime. These activities build academic readiness without losing the joy of discovery.

Encouraging Social and Emotional Growth

For preschoolers, learning how to share, listen, and express themselves is just as important as learning numbers and letters. We guide children through activities that promote empathy, cooperation, and self-regulation. Circle time discussions, role-play scenarios, and group projects give children the chance to practice kindness, patience, and teamwork in a supportive setting.

Outdoor Exploration and Physical Play

Movement is essential for growing bodies and minds. Our daily schedule includes time outside where children can run, climb, and explore. Outdoor play not only supports physical health but also nurtures imagination and problem-solving skills as children invent games and collaborate with friends.

Nurturing Independence and Confidence

From helping set the table for lunch to cleaning up after activities, we give our preschoolers opportunities to take responsibility for themselves and their environment. These moments build confidence and prepare them for the increased independence they’ll need in kindergarten.

Wrapping Up the Day

Before going home, children participate in a calming closing routine—reading together, sharing highlights from the day, or singing a familiar song. This helps them reflect on what they’ve learned and end the day with a sense of accomplishment and belonging.

Give Your Child the Gift of a Joyful Learning Day

Every day in our preschool classroom is thoughtfully designed to inspire growth, foster friendships, and nurture a lifelong love of learning. If you’d like your child to experience a day filled with joy, discovery, and care, we’d love to welcome your family to Truth Preschool Academy.

Ms. Andrea

Hi, my name is Andrea and I assist with the Two and Three old class with Ms. Michelle and Ms. Claudia. I recently graduated from Chaffey College with an Associates of Early Childhood Education. I have worked with children for the past twenty years from ages three to eighteen years old working with a Tiny Tot Program and Teen Action Committee for The City of Ontario and working with Alta Loma School District after school program. I have found my love for preschoolers, and I am interested in pursuing my bachelor’s degree working with children with autism spectrum disorders.

Truth Preschool Academy has been a blessing to me to work with all your children daily.

Ms. Tanisha

Hi, my name is Tanisha, I am the teacher for the pre-kindergarten class. I have been teaching at Truth Preschool Academy for 4 years now. However, I have worked in a few centers for the past 20 years. I have worked with children aged two through four. Teaching children is an adventure. Some days I am the teacher and other days I am the student. My interests include meditation, cooking and reading which I often incorporate into my classroom setting.

Ms. Claudia

Hi, my name is Claudia, I am incredibly excited to be a part of the TPA team. I have been working at TPA for 3 years. I hope to inspire my class just like they inspire me every day. My native country is El Salvador, and my first language is Spanish. I am happily married and blessed with three wonderful children. I started working with children as a volunteer at different preschools, and since then I knew I wanted to be around children to help them grow. I grew up in LA where I attended school and took early child development classes to be able to work in this field.  I have been working with children ages 2-5 for about 17 years and I am still excited to work with them and help them grow in their own unique way.

Ms. Patty

Hi, my name is Patty and I have been a part of the TPA team for 2 ½ years now. I have worked  specifically in early childhood education for the last 6 years and have taught after school etiquette classes. I have also enjoyed being involved in many summer camp programs with children of all ages for the last 20 years. I truly love working with children and I am thankful for every opportunity I get to make an impact in each of my students’ lives. I have three children of my own and in our free time we love all things outdoors including hiking and pickle ball!

I believe every child has their own unique way of learning and that teaching is something that is done in all capacities throughout the day in both academic settings as well as through interactive play. I am so grateful to be able to love what I do and help make even a small difference in our future generation.

Ms. Michelle

Hi, my name is Michelle, I am very excited to be a part of Truth Preschool Academy as the Toddler Program teacher. I have a passion for nurturing young minds and helping them grow! I have 15 years of experience working with children of various age groups. My teaching approach is centered around play based learning, as children learn best when they are engaged in something of interest to them. My goal is to create a warm and loving environment for all children who enter our doors here at TPA. I am excited to be a part of your child’s academic journey.

Ms. Danielle

Hi, my name is Danielle, and I am pleased to be a part of Truth Preschool Academy as the Director. My top priority is ensuring that our philosophy is conveyed into our  everyday operations working with the children that walk through our doors. I am a huge believer in being a hands-on director  so at many times you will find me in a classroom working alongside our staff  or you may find me at my desk completing administrative work.  My interest in working with children began at an early age during my teen years. When I graduated high school, I immediately started my journey pursuing my degree in child development. I have been in the field for about 8 years now,  I started off with babysitting and soon after I began teaching at my first school as a three-year-old teacher. After leaving my hometown in Torrance, CA I began as an infant teacher and worked my way into the assistant director role which then led me to my director position here at Truth Preschool Academy. 

In my free time I love spending time with my family. I have a three-year-old son who loves to be active outside. We often go to new parks or experience new outdoor adventures. I look forward to working with you and your family here at TPA!

Ms. Kristy

Welcome to Truth Preschool Academy! My name is Kristy Rowell, and I am honored to serve as the Administrator here. From a young age, I have always had a special connection with children and a deep love for working with them, nurtured through my involvement in church activities like Sunday school and directing the children’s choir. Inspired by my passion for creating a safe and loving learning environment, I pursued the necessary certifications and coursework to start a preschool. In October 2019, after becoming licensed with the state of California, we proudly opened the doors of Truth Preschool Academy, a dream realized with the unwavering support of Truth Church of Southern California and Pastor Clifford Clark.

At Truth Preschool Academy, our mission is to foster a love for learning in every child. As the Administrator, I am dedicated to selecting only the most caring and qualified staff to ensure your child’s well-being and education are our top priorities. We understand there are many choices in early childhood education, but at TPA, you can rest assured that your child is in good hands. We can’t wait to meet you and your family and welcome you to our community!
