ABOUT US
Zebulon United Methodist Church Preschool was first established in January 1998 as a Mother's Morning Out Program by the Zebulon United Methodist Church family and with Pam White, the preschool's first director. Unfortunately, the Preschool closed in March 2020 due to Covid. We celebrate today as we reopened the ZUMC Preschool on January 17th, 2023.
Our preschool provides classes for children one (must be walking), two, three, four and five years of age. The birthday cut-off date for classes is August 31. We offer two, three, four, and five day programs and operates September through May.
Enrollment is now open!
