Our preschool program promotes spiritual, intellectual, physical, and social growth of the young children in our care. 

The curriculum creates a play-based and hands-on learning environment in which children can learn about their individual talents, develop social skills, enjoy their peer environment, and grow into independent and enthusiastic learners.

We offer two groupings to fit your child’s needs:

Our 3s & 4s group is perfect for students who have no or limited experience with a school or daycare program. Children will learn the routines and will grow in their ability to thrive outside of the home environment in this classroom.

Our 4s & 5s is more suited for students who are planning to make the leap to Kindergarten in the next year. This is focused on ‘Kindergarten Preparedness’ and will have a stronger emphasis on the academic side of things.

Both program are available Full Time or Part Time. Full Time = $27/day, 5 Days a week Part Time = $30/day 1-4 days a week. Both programs qualify for free BeforeCare (7:00-8:00 a.m.) and AfterCare (3:00-5:30pm).

 

Children in the program engage in letter and number work, directed and free form art programs, free play, handwriting practice, play-based learning with open creation stations that include role playing, small motor skill development, building and “making” as well as hands on tactile and creative exploration.

Our Preschool strives to:

  • Assist with hygiene and self-help skills such as caring for all personal needs in a classroom environment (basic self management required prior to start of school year).

  • Provide preparation for kindergarten in a loving, caring Catholic environment.

  • Encourage the child to grow in an awareness of self and others through the love of God.

  • Develop age appropriate patterns of dependence and independence.

  • Grow in social and emotional skills, including appropriate expression of emotion, ability to manage aggression and stress, and focused participation in activities.

  • Increase language skills in both listening and communicating.

  • Develop perceptual and motor skills by practicing many kinds of hands-on and interactive materials for fine motor and large motor development.

  • Help children to identify with themselves as cooperative members of a group, as well as learn to appreciate their unique, God-given talents as individuals.

  • Enhance creative skills and enjoyment through experiences with art materials, music, building, and play.
