Early Childhood
Our enriching Pre-K 3 program is designed to meet the cognitive, social, emotional, and spiritual needs of each child. The program for three-year olds focuses on presenting letters, shapes, colors, and holiday themes in a structured and nurturing environment. Students in our Pre- K 3 program take part in our P.E. and Library program, have opportunities for Music and Movement, and participate in community service projects. We recognize that each child is a gift from God!
Our Pre-K 4 program focuses on teaching the whole child in the areas of language, social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual development. Students engage in learning activities that focus on English Language Arts (ELA) and Math skills that prepare them for the Kindergarten classroom. Classes in P.E., Music, Spanish, Art, and Library are all a part of their weekly schedule.
