A Bit About Lake Nixon
LNOP is located within the 200+ acre Lake Nixon Outdoor Center (LNOC) in Little Rock, AR. Owned and operated by Second Baptist Church, LNOC provides outdoor and educational programs for over 500 children and adults each year. LNOP has a talented and dynamic staff of full and part-time educators, administrative support staff and volunteers. LNOP is open year-round and the majority of the preschool day is spent learning and playing outdoors in all weather. The staff to child ratio is kept at a maximum of 1:8. Classes are team-taught by a Lead Educator and other teachers and staff. A typical day will include supporting the Lead Educator, offering further extension activities and engaging with the children. Each Teacher will be responsible for their small group of children while ensuring basic safety for the entire class as a whole.
