Through the Week School (TTWS)
Ardmore United Methodist Through the Week School (TTWS) is a vibrant weekday ministry of Ardmore UMC. We are a half-day program (9:00-12:00) with optional Lunch Bunch until 1:00. We have 3 wonderful playgrounds, large classrooms with natural light, and exceptional teachers! With over fifty years of outreach ministry, we continue to show families the love of Jesus and the hospitality of Ardmore UMC. We are blessed with wonderful children and families that bring our halls alive Monday through Friday, September through May each year. We would love to give you a tour, and we hope you will join our family.

Supporting the Ministry
Would you like to help a child attend preschool at Ardmore United Methodist TTWS? We have a scholarship fund that helps families in need pay their tuition. Anyone can donate to this fund! Any amount is helpful and appreciated.
You can give your donation in honor of someone special, like a grandchild who attended preschool here or a teacher that you love. If you would like for us to do so, we will put that person’s picture up in the hallway and on our Facebook page.
You may give to this fund several different ways: by mailing a check to the church, giving an offering during Sunday services, dropping off a check at the preschool or church office, or online using this link:
https://abundant.co/ardmoreumc/give (*In the drop down box choose “TTWS Student Scholarship Fund")
Please make checks payable to TTWS Ardmore UMC, and write “Scholarship Fund” in the memo line. Your gift will make a huge impact on a child's life. Thank you!
