About Us
Grace Christian Preschool welcomes all students and does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarship, or other school administered programs.
Our Mission
Grace Christian Preschool is a mission of Grace Lutheran Church to serve its members and the community by giving preschool age children the opportunity to experience a positive learning environment within a Christian atmosphere.
Our Philosophy
At Grace Christian Preschool, we are committed to nurturing the whole child. We foster social and emotional growth, academic achievements, independence, and confidence in each precious child. With faith as our guiding principle, we create a warm and supportive environment where children are encouraged to explore, learn, and grow in the knowledge of God's love and grace.
State Licensed
Grace Christian Preschool is home to the only state licensed, faith based preschool in Iowa County. All staff members are certified teachers in a licensed facility. A board of directors consisting of parents, teachers, and congregation members govern our preschool.

Additional Registration Information
We are a “morning only” preschool for children ages three and four. To enroll, your child must turn three prior to September 31st and be potty trained. You choose the number of mornings that work best for your family and the days of the week that best suit your schedule. We try to accommodate each family and give them their first choice of days. However, we make every effort to keep the classes small and balanced. If we find that there is a class that is extremely large or one very small, we will look at your second choice of days that you indicate on your registration form. We may call you to discuss your schedule and your flexibility with the days. Some families have no flexibility due to work or transportation schedules while others are willing and able to switch days. We work to make it a positive experience for everyone!
About the forms, the Child Health Report (which requires a doctor’s signature) must be on file within the first three months of school. The immunization record must be on file within thirty days of enrollment. All other forms must be submitted at time of registration. Please complete the forms and mail them, along with the registration fee, to 1105 N. Bequette St. Dodgeville, WI 53533. Or feel free to drop them off in the church office or in the drop box near the front door.
If you have any questions or concerns we are more than happy to discuss them with you. We understand that this, for many, is not just a first school experience for the preschooler but also for parents who want to make sure their child is in good hands and that their preschool is a good fit. All of our staff sent their children to Grace and have been in your shoes! Please email us at gracechristianpreschool.com. Leave your number and we’ll call you back!
