About us

Welcome to ABC Express Preschool Center, a Christian based program!

Established in 1985 by Cathy Burley and Joanie Keis, we are pleased to celebrate the lives and learning styles of your children! The creation of this unique school was to bring a high quality christian based preschool program to families as well as providing extended care on both ends of the day. We offer a pre-school experience for children from 16 months until Kindergarten. Our program is dedicated to developing a child’s natural creativity, curiosity and sense of wonder. We also introduce children to our Christian values and the importance of our Faith. Our goal is to foster in each child a strong sense of self-worth, an introduction to the Christian faith and a positive attitude towards school. In 2022, Cathy and Joanie brought in their daughters as additional owners. Anne Pickerign and Sally Schlee attended ABC Express and worked through high school and college and now are teachers and directors. It is a wonderful natural fit. Anne is the director and Sally teaches one of the transitional preschool classes as well as the Assistant director. Together, these four women provide an excellent learning and caring environment for all children.
