Cicero Christian Church is thankful to be able to provide families a Christian alternative to their child care and pre-elementary education needs through the three departments of Crosslight Christian School:
- Daycare providing year-round, full-day care for children age 6 weeks through 12 years. We participate in the Family & Social Services Administration Paths to QUALITY program and accept CCDF vouchers.
- Montessori Preschool - providing up to four sessions a week for nine months a year of pre-elementary education for children ages three through five implementing Montessori methods
- Montessori Kindergarten - Our montessori kindergarten has graduated six classes, but is not in session for the 2011/2012 school year. If you have a desire to enroll a child in a church montessori kindergarten program, contact Joanna Moore, school director.
