The mission of Maitland Community Preschool is to lead our children to know God and His world by providing a solid foundation for life and learning.
Our vision is that each child who attends MCP will grow spiritually, intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically.
Our role is to support and encourage parents in the nurture and training of their children. We believe that children learn best in a loving, caring environment where they may experience the awe and wonder of God’s world through hands-on, developmentally appropriate activities.
As MCP is a ministry of Orangewood Church, we support the Children’s Ministries mission statement of inviting every person (including our preschoolers) into the life-changing story of Jesus.

Additional Information
Florida’s Voluntary Pre-K (VPK) program provides funding for every 4-year-old child in the state to attend a high-quality Voluntary Prekindergarten Program to prepare them for success when they enter kindergarten the following year. VPK funding is available to all children for the 2026-2027 school year who will be 4 years old on or before September 1, 2026.
Parents of children with spring/summer birthdays may also elect to delay enrollment in VPK until the following year (when they will be 5). However, children are only eligible to participate in the VPK program for one school year.
