Description:
Nestled among tall oak and pine trees, St. Francis Preschool has been providing a nurturing stable environment of fun, friendship and security for children, ages 2–5 for over 50 years. Children discover the joy of learning through experimenting, exploring, and playing safely in age appropriate activities. We emphasize a child’s social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development and value each child’s individual personality. We maintain a child centered, play based and developmentally paced program with a balance of structured and unstructured play. Kindergarten readiness is interwoven throughout the program and the curriculum provides each child with activities and materials that promote the gain of social-emotional development where children develop into caring, cooperative, socially competent, responsible, and independent individuals who are curious learners.
Preschool classes are offered Monday through Friday mornings from 9:00am to 11:45/noon for children who are 2 years 9 months by 12/31 of the academic school year through entry into KIndergarten. Children may attend 5 days a week, 3 days a week (MWF) or 2 days a week (TTh). Parents may also enroll their child into our Lunch Bunch program which extends the child's day until 12:45/1pm. Children enrolled in the "older" PreK classes (4 years and older) are eligible to enroll into one of our Enrichment classes offered Monday through Thursday which extends the child's day until 2:30pm.
