About Us

A WELCOME FROM OUR PRESCHOOL DIRECTOR

Dear Parents,

Welcome to St. Michael Preschool! Thank you for entrusting your child’s very special years to us. As parents, you are your child’s primary teachers. As Catholic preschool educators, we also play an important role in your child’s life. Our goal is to help them prepare for formal education by nurturing the joy of learning in a safe and loving environment where they can grow in their love of Jesus.

We recognize that children whose basic emotional, social, spiritual, and physical needs are met and nurtured through the preschool years will be ready and eager to learn the academics in elementary school. Therefore, the curriculum for each age level is comprised of thematic units utilizing age-appropriate content and materials that allow children to experience success through self-initiated investigations, socialization, and play. Through rich, meaningful experiences, your child will build self-confidence, self-esteem, and a sense of wonder about the world around them.

It is through a strong home-school connection that we can foster the best start for your child. We accept the responsibility to keep you informed of the learning readiness concepts and skills being taught and your child’s developmental progress. Furthermore, parent participation is encouraged and welcomed as we work together to support the preschool’s mission.

St. Michael Preschool has provided a safe, loving, faith-filled early childhood education to children in our community for over 40 years. The teachers and I look forward to a joyful and rewarding school year filled with love, learning, friendship, and fun. Thank you again for entrusting your child to our loving care and for your support and prayers.

God bless, and be assured of my prayers for you and your family.

“God is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God and God in him.”
1 John 4:16

PRAY

Faith is at the heart of St. Michael Preschool. Through prayer, Catholic traditions, and the loving example of our teachers, clergy, and parish community, children begin to know Jesus and experience God’s love in their everyday lives.

PLAY

Children learn through play, relationships, and discovery. Families are an important part of our preschool community, and we welcome parents and caregivers to participate, build friendships, and help create the joyful sense of belonging that makes St. Michael special.

LEARN

Our experienced teachers create developmentally appropriate learning experiences that encourage curiosity, confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.

St. Michael Preschool serves approximately 151 children, with 10 children in our two-year-old classes, 15 in our three-year-old classes, and 16–18 in our four- and five-year-old classes, each supported by a teacher and assistant.

Our teachers hold an education degree or early childhood credential, and all preschool staff are certified in CPR, AED, and first aid, as well as the use of EpiPens and asthma inhalers. Staff also participate in continuing education throughout the year.
