St. Mary’s Preschool

St. Mary’s Preschool nurtures and educates the whole child: heart, mind, body, and soul. Children who are 2 years old by July 31 may enroll in our Early Learners program. Children 3 years old by July 31 may enroll in our Advanced Learners program, and children who are 4 years old by July 31 may enroll in our Pre-Kindergarten program. Our Advanced Learners and Pre-Kindergarten programs are taught by certified educators who are passionate about children and teaching, and who help our students find joy in learning.

Our classrooms are filled with excitement, curiosity, and discovery. Our Christian-based curriculum features engaged instruction, hands-on learning activities, structured and purposeful play, and a caring, compassionate atmosphere that allows each child to shine.

Favorite Scripture Quote: "but he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me. Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthian 12:9-10
