Early Childhood Division
Parish students are greeted with the opportunity to discover their strengths the moment they step foot on our Hillcrest Campus. The facilities invite our youngest students to explore through engaging, stimulating and developmentally appropriate activities.
Our Early Childhood teachers understand that individualized, hands-on learning creates the optimal scenario for pre-kindergarten through second grade students to develop the social, intellectual, spiritual and physical skills, as well as the confidence, independence and responsibility, they will need to be successful learners in not only school, but also in life.
Early Childhood Highlights
• Center-oriented classrooms
• Emphasis on written and oral expression
• “Hands-on” and “Minds-on” activities and experimentation
• Motor Labs that teach large motor development
• Introduction to Visual and Performing Arts
• Chapel
• Introduction to community service
Pre-kindergarten and kindergarten classes are aimed at developing and expanding the child’s perceptual abilities, communication skills, creative expression, and the desire to read, write, and use numbers. In first and second grades, the primary years, strong fundamental skills in the core subjects are built, and as basic skills are mastered, the goal of the school is for students to become confident, self-motivated, and continuous learners.
