EUMK Memphis / Emmanuel United Methodist Kindergarten

Our teachers (and SK students!) are back in the building this week! Thank you to our Parent Council for the amazing breakfast welcoming us on Monday morning! K1-K4, we’re getting ready for ya!!

Today’s Plant & Play brought our families out to help get the playground ready for the new year- planting flowers and running off the last of that summer energy. Thank you to everyone who came and dug in!! It’s going to be a good year 🌼

Kick off the school year with us at Plant & Play! Help plant flowers, enjoy the playground, and meet some friends! Siblings welcome, snacks provided 🌼

Some math tells you a lot about a school: one of our teachers has been here since 1993. Several teachers first walked through our doors as EUMK parents themselves. They loved this place so much as families that they came back to teach here. That's not an accident. It's what happens when people love where they work- and it means your child will be known here, quirks and all, by teachers who plan to stick around.
We've been doing this in East Memphis since 1970, and we'd love to show you why families stay. A tour is the first step. ❤️

Parents have occasionally asked us why some of the art that comes home looks like a happy little disaster. 🤣Fair question! Here’s our answer: We care more about what happened while your child made it than how it looks on the fridge. We’re a process art school. We hand children the paint, the glue, the odd bits of paper, and then we get out of the way. The wobbly, the messy, the “what even is this?”- that’s a 3 year old taking a risk and learning she’s allowed to.

We don't use a curriculum you can buy in a box. Every week at our school is built around a single book. One “spotlight book” sets the whole week in motion- the art table, the building blocks, the songs at circle time, the counting games. It's a way of teaching we've built and refined ourselves since 1970, and it's why no two weeks here ever look the same.
