St. Mary’s Catholic School now enrolling for Pre-K Program: A nurturing start for young learners

St. Mary’s Catholic School is currently accepting enrollment for its Pre-K program, designed to provide a strong, nurturing foundation for children ages 3 and 4. Our Pre-K curriculum blends faith, academics, and hands-on learning to help children grow socially, emotionally, and spiritually, preparing them for success in school and life.

As a school grounded in Catholic values, St. Mary’s strives to create an environment where children feel safe, loved, and encouraged to explore the world around them. The Pre-K program offers a comprehensive and personalized learning experience that focuses on developing the whole child—body, mind, and spirit.

“Our goal is to create a learning space that fosters curiosity, builds character, and instills a love of learning that will stay with students throughout their lives,” said Principal Stephen Wren. “Through engaging activities, faith-based lessons, and a focus on individual growth, we guide each child toward their full potential.”

The Pre-K program at St. Mary’s Catholic School is led by experienced and compassionate educators who are dedicated to creating a positive and enriching experience for young learners. Classrooms are equipped with age-appropriate resources and materials that support a hands-on, interactive approach to learning. Children will enjoy activities that promote early literacy, numeracy, social skills, and spiritual development, all while building lasting friendships.

Key features of St. Mary’s Pre-K Program include:

Faith-based education with daily prayers and teachings from the Catholic faith
Hands-on learning activities to encourage creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving
Small class sizes for individualized attention
A focus on social-emotional development to help children build positive relationships with peers
Family-oriented community, with opportunities for parents to engage in their child’s learning journey
Safe and welcoming environment that promotes a sense of belonging and joy

Enrollment for the upcoming school year is currently underway. Families interested in the Pre-K program are encouraged to schedule a tour of the school to learn more about the program and see firsthand how St. Mary’s Catholic School can be the ideal start for their child’s educational journey. Additionally, families are invited to visit the school on Fridays for Brew and Browse, starting with morning prayer at 7:40am followed by school tours, where they can explore the campus, meet teachers, and ask any questions.
