New Day Preschool | About Us | Our Facilities
New Day Preschool is a faith-based preschool operated by the Rockville United Methodist Church. New Day Preschool holds a Letter of Compliance (License # 57667) through the Maryland State Department of Education, Office of Child Care.
The role and mission of New Day Preschool is to provide a safe and nurturing environment which:
- Fosters emotional, social, and physical development
- Cultivates Christian values and practices
- Inspires the wonder of learning
- Invites families to participate in our community of faith
It is the concern and direction of the Preschool Ministry Team that the heritage of Christian faith be expressed through the day-to-day relationships between our teachers and their students, as well as in the curriculum.
We believe that each child is a unique and valuable creation of God, and therefore it is the purpose of the school to provide an environment conducive to developing the “wholeness” of each child. Within this framework, and under the thoughtful and sympathetic guidance of the teacher, we foster the development of each child’s mind, body, and spirit.
We believe that a preschool environment that provides flexibility within a disciplined atmosphere will help each child grow as a whole person and an individual. Through a loving, nurturing, and fun atmosphere, we invite each child to discover who they are, their skills and talents, their rights and limits, and their worth as a child of God.
We believe the preschool experience should allow each child to become independent and confident so they grow in happy and trustful relationships with others while developing a sense of responsibility. It is our purpose to help each child develop their potential while gaining a better understanding and appreciation of themselves as a member of God’s family.
To achieve these goals, we provide a multitude of satisfying experiences for each child to:
- Play and work in a small group with children their own age
- Express their feelings, make decisions, and discover their interests
- Develop their language skills (listening, speaking, writing, and reading readiness), which are the foundation for elementary school learning
- Verbalize their experiences and the wonders of the world
- Carry out simple activities involving creative materials, drama, music, and indoor and outdoor play equipment
- Test their newly developed physical skills
- Understand the difference between right and wrong through meaningful experiences
- Respect the rights of others
In short, we believe the preschool should provide a background of first-hand experiences that instill confidence and anticipation while preparing the child for future learning.

6: Bill’s Grant Reborn
In May 2018, MHP cut the ribbon to reopen the fully refurbished Beall’s Grant Apartments in Rockville after a $4.8 million renovation. The residences offer modern and affordable living in a transit-friendly neighborhood adjacent to the city of Rockville, within walking distance of many major amenities.
The building was originally a motel built in 1965, and was purchased by MHP, along with another smaller building directly adjacent to it, to implement the concept of affordable rental housing. The development provides access to affordable housing in an area that has undergone significant transformation, including new high-end apartment buildings. Residents are happy to be there and not be judged by the neighborhood. One resident had previously dealt with homelessness, and he described the impact of being able to call Grant Bill his new home: “When you’re homeless and you move in, that changes everything.” Another resident noted the proximity to public transportation and the modernized downtown Rockville. “It made Rockville a much better place to live.”

8: A Revolutionary Vision – Bonifant
In June 2014, a revolutionary affordable housing concept began to take shape, marking a milestone for MHP as a non-profit residential developer. The ground was laid for The Bonifant, MHP’s first expansion into senior housing.

Kristeller was a vocal supporter of affordable housing and co-founded the MHP in 1989, working with affordable housing community advocates. He passed away in 1999 leaving a lasting legacy in Montgomery County. Today, annual golf tournament revenue supports our community life programs, including preschools, homework clubs, and high school programs for low-income residents in our communities.
The tournament has grown from a small community event with a handful of sponsors to a major event with over 30 sponsors and 120 golfers. A highlight of recent tournaments is the Youth Golf Clinic, which opened in 2010 to teach basic golf techniques to children aged 11 to 17 living at MHP facilities. For many, this is their first introduction to golf.
