    Enrolling your child in our preschool program offers a safe and nurturing environment for learning and growth. In our faith-based setting, children have the chance to learn, socialize, explore new experiences, ask questions, and play games with their peers. Preschool parents understand the importance of preparing their child for Kindergarten, while also recognizing that each child's development is unique. Faithful Beginnings' full-day preschool program is designed to nurture lifelong learners, focusing on individual development across spiritual, social-emotional, academic, and physical growth. Classroom placements are based on date of birth and classroom availability. Our close collaboration between preschool and primary teachers ensures a seamless transition into elementary school, providing a solid foundation for your child's educational journey.

    ​

    Curriculum:
    Our curriculum is designed to engage and challenge students through daily lessons and a dynamic approach. Your child will explore various subjects including language arts, sensory activities, religion, science, math, technology, engineering, music, and dramatic play. We utilize Creative Curriculum which is, “a comprehensive, research-based curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning.” Through the curriculum, we use different studies to investigate and problem solve. Faith is woven into the school day through prayer and kindness. Preschoolers also observe important Catholic holidays and attend Mass on prayer buddy days. Unique to our preschool program, children participate in specials such as Media and Physical Education, enhancing their educational experience and promoting development.


    Nutrition:                                                                                                                                                              Our preschool program embraces a “family-style” approach to mealtime, where children sit, pray, and eat alongside their peers. This fosters a wonderful environment for socialization and the development of essential self-help skills. Half-day students will also enjoy lunch at school, providing an excellent opportunity to practice manners, enhance self-help skills, and connect with friends. Students will be provided with nutritious meals. Families have the option to bring a cold lunch from home or order hot lunch.
