Our Philosophy and Goals
Our preschool provides an enriching environment for each child entrusted to our care.  Learning experiences and play activities encourage spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth.

Interaction with other children and adults, in an atmosphere of Christian love and concern, promotes the healthy development of each child.

Preschool Curriculum
We allow each child to develop these needs by setting realistic challenges for them. We encourage our students to be active participants in the learning process through exploration and discovery.

The curriculum is developed using a “hands-on” approach to learning. Multi-sensory activities are planned in a sequential manner to enhance the complete development of the student.

The teachers incorporate thematic units in various subject areas. This is done on a weekly basis. When planning these themes, seasons, holidays, special events, etc. are kept in mind.

  • RELIGION – Develop a positive self-image in relationship to a loving God

  • LANGUAGE ARTS – Develop communication skills that enable a child to share his/her world with others, as well as build stronger comprehension skills

  • MATHEMATICS – Develop knowledge which comes from the understanding of quantitative concepts

  • SCIENCE – Develop a natural curiosity leading the children to question, investigate, manipulate, classify, and report findings

  • SOCIAL STUDIES – Develop an understanding in regard to differences in family lifestyles

  • DEVELOPMENTAL SKILLS – Develop personal & social skills, and fine & gross motor skills
