Our Preschool Program typically begins mid-August and ends mid-May. We generally follow the Cobb Co School Calendar for all other holidays and school closings. There are a few exceptions with religious holidays and preschool early release days. We will notify you of those ahead of time on your child’s specific classroom calendar and in our weekly classroom newsletters.

Our staff dedicates time to the development of communication skills, using new language and learning to make friends. We explore God’s world developing confidence in colors, shapes, numbers, the alphabet and exploring art and science in messy ways. Our children also learn some very simple, toddler prayers.
Children are guided through developmentally appropriate skills using Art and Craft Materials, Music and Movement, Fine Motor Manipulatives, Dramatic Play, Language and Literacy, Beginning Alphabet and Math concepts, Sensory and Cooking , Outdoor/Large Motor Play and Age appropriate Prayer and Catholic/Christian teachings.
Three Year Olds
Our 3s are all about talking and growing.
With a classroom teacher/child ratio of 1-8 children, the 3-year-old teachers design curriculum that uses your child’s building vocabulary and their love of asking and discovering “why”? We count and sort manipulatives and we search for letters in poetry and books. 3s ability to sit and listen for longer periods of time opens up more details of art, science, and social studies exploration. The children learn the “Our Father” and participate in preschool-led Prayer Services.
All 3s classes are guided through developmentally appropriate skills using Art and Craft Materials, Music and Movement, Fine Motor Manipulatives, Dramatic Play, Language and Literacy, Sensory and Cooking, Beginning Spanish Vocabulary, Beginning Tracing and Letter Formation, Number and Math activities and Outdoor/Large Motor Play.
Parent will send a lunch with their child every day.

Pre K is a big year!
They are big kids getting ready for “big school” with a classroom teacher/child ratio of 1-5 per class for our 4 Day class and 1-8 for our larger 5 Day class.

They continue to develop and fine-tune language, communication, math, art, science, and social studies skills. Our Pre K has the opportunity to learn pre-reading skills with our “Happily Ever After” and “Super Kids” program.
