Curriculum

Our school has an age appropriate curriculum which is literature based. The Plan-Do-Review approach incorporates a monthly theme with all of the curricular areas. We accept children ages 2 years to Kindergarten and offer the option of a Christian based classroom. (Children need not be potty-trained.)

Activities we do include:

  • Dramatic Play
  • Sensory Tables
  • Story Time
  • Block Play
  • Puzzles & Games

Preschool Plus

St. Paul's also offers a Preschool Plus program that goes from 11:30-1:30 p.m. for 3 & 4 year olds. This is an extension of the preschool program.

Parent Involvement

Parents are a child's first teacher and very important to our school. We believe that teachers working in partnership with parents help a child reach their full potential. In view of this belief, parents have the option to participate as classroom helpers. Though not a requirement, we welcome you to be a classroom helper on a regular basis. Your tuition will be reduced accordingly.

Registration

We encourage you to call and set up a tour of our preschool. To enroll your child with our school, please contact us at 363-6349. There is a $55.00 non-refundable registration fee, which includes a T-Shirt for additional field trip security. Kindergarten teachers consider preschool an important step in the educational process for children.
