About First Baptist Weekday Educ Center
First Baptist Weekday Education Center is a nonprofit, half-day preschool in Sanford that has been open for more than 30 years. We take children from age one through four, and every classroom has a lead teacher and an assistant. Our staff of 19 brings a combined 312 years of teaching.
Each age has its own focus. One-year-olds work on sharing, music, art, dance and motor skills. Two-year-olds get their first taste of a structured classroom, and threes start on letters, numbers, writing their names and cutting. Our 4-year-old classes are the most structured, using the Letterland curriculum that lines up with Lee County Schools to get children ready for kindergarten. Children attend chapel twice a week for a Bible lesson with songs, movement and stories.
Families choose Tuesday and Thursday, Monday, Wednesday and Friday, or five-day schedules, with 2026-27 monthly tuition from $155 to $350 plus an $80 yearly enrollment fee. For potty-trained 2s, 3s and 4s, Early Morning drop-off starts at 7:50 a.m. and Lunch Bunch adds playtime with pickup at 1:00 p.m., each for $5 a day.
