HIGH ACADEMIC STANDARDS
St. Mary’s offers an early childhood program for children three, four and five years of age. The goal of the school is to promote the spiritual, social, emotional and intellectual development of each child in a nurturing atmosphere with Catholic values.
HIGH ACADEMIC STANDARDS
St. Mary’s Preschool follows the rigorous academic standards of the Archdiocese of Washington. We use
the Big Day for Pre-K Curriculum to achieve those standards. Personalized instruction is provided on a
daily basis so that each child receives a challenging and engaging education.
At St. Mary’s we fully support play-based learning. Our students leave the Prekindergarten program equipped to take on the challenges of Kindergarten.

EXTRACURRICULAR – ARCHODIOCESAN MUSIC PROGRAM
Philosophy
The music program seeks to play an equal part with the rest of the educational process in the development of the students so that they will grow into mature, Christian adults. It is not a vocationally oriented program, although many of our students have gone on to become professional musicians and music educators. Our primary position is not that of a “feeder” program for the secondary schools. Rather, we try to impart to as many children as possible the unique experience which can be attained only through an instrumental program; to teach the techniques of performance and the fundamentals of music and music making. The program strives to serve the needs of the schools, the parents, and the students.
This program is a diocesan program. We are as concerned with the schools whose music programs are not successful as with those which are. Schools whose band enrollments have dropped to as low as 8 to 10 students were not abandoned because they were not carrying their own weight or because they were difficult to schedule. The program operates the same way in each school and is committed to making instrumental music available to every student in the Archdiocese.
