Our Philosophy

The curriculum of our kindergarten involves the total experiences that a child has from the time he arrives until the time he leaves. Each day brings opportunities to play, investigate, and to express ideas. Our basic philosophy includes:

Providing the child with opportunities to make appropriate choices and to express himself

Encouraging the child to do what he can for himself, to develop a positive self-concept and to accept responsibility using a positive approach and love in our guidance while setting consistent boundaries

Seeking to build the child's faith by developing an awareness of God and His love for us through teaching and example

Providing an educational environment where each child is encouraged to actively participate in the learning process
