The Saint Mary Preschool program offers a positive and happy introduction to learning in a school setting.
Students attend preschool either two or three days per week from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Before School is available from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Preschool students who are three years old and toilet-trained may also enroll in the elementary school After School Care program which is open until 5:30 p.m. A limited number of spots are available for full time enrollment Monday-Friday.
There are three self-contained preschool classrooms for students two through five years of age. Each class is taught by two teachers working together in order to provide a safe and loving environment for play, guided exploration and hands on learning activities. These competent and dedicated teachers work as partners with parents in educating their children and serve as role models of the Catholic faith by demonstrating love and compassion to all of their students.
