Opportunity School  The purpose of Opportunity School is to
provide a developmentally appropriate preschool for 3, 4, and 5 year old
children so that they can expand their world with a variety of materials
and experiences and to foster positive relationships with our children
and adults outside the immediate family in a safe and loving environment.

Our Mission  The mission of Ottawa Opportunity School is to serve
children and families in our community by providing a high quality,
affordable early childhood education program and by establishing a
working partnership between family and school.

Our  program provides an early childhood educational experience to
children with a need; especially children who would not otherwise have
the opportunity for preschool experiences.  The school will attempt to
serve at least one scholarship student to each paying student without
regard to sex, race, color, creed, national or ethnic origin.

Ottawa Opportunity School shall be regarded as part of the mission
program of the First Presbyterian Church of Ottawa and its outreach
program.
