The Preschool program
promotes the spiritual,
emotional, intellectual, physical and social growth of the young
children at Saint Paul School. Language is the development of
communication skills that enable a child to share his/her world
with others. These skills are achieved through listening, music,
and finger plays, as well as alphabet activities and conclude
with the writing of their names. Math readiness skills such as
colors, shapes, classifying, patterns, numerals and counting
sets are practiced using manipulatives, play experiences and
story telling. Preschool at Saint Paul School also strives to
develop life skills and personal development skills as well.
Fine and gross motor goals are set for the children, as well as
self-help skills are developed on a daily basis. Students at
Saint Paul Preschool also benefit from extra-curricular classes
such as Computer, Library, Art and Physical Education.
Preschool children begin their faith formation at Saint Paul’s
as well, focusing on God’s World, family, friends and simple
explanations of seasons of the Church year, as well as
participating in school prayer and monthly Mass.
