EXPERIENCED TEACHERS

Our goal is to use our love of teaching to foster a love of learning in our students. Our preschool teachers have an average of ten years’ experience in the classroom. They’ve seen trends in early education shift over the years but understand the need to focus on educating the whole child and how to do that. In addition to the teacher, each preschool classroom has a minimum of one teaching assistant. Our prekindergarteners also visit weekly with the librarian, technology specialist, music teacher and physical education instructor.

THE JOY OF LEARNING

At St. Mary’s we want our preschoolers to know the joys of learning and discovery. We believe learning takes place both in and out of the classroom. Field trips allow our students to make connections between their classroom learning and their world. Our tuition at St. Mary’s School is all inclusive; there is never an additional field trip cost, technology fee or book bill. We set up our classrooms so that each student can make their own discoveries about the things that interest them. Each of our classrooms has a designated “science-space” with rotating tools, books, and opportunities to explore.
