St. Philip's offers a high quality preschool for children in the community. We are proud of our low child-to-teacher ratio and the safe nurturing environment we provide. Our program is teacher directed, yet provides many opportunities for children to make choices and have fun at school.
 

We view preschool as a kindergarten readiness program where we provide opportunities for social, emotional, academic, spiritual and developmental growth in a non-threatening atmosphere. Children are allowed "time to be kids"!

We offer classes for children who turn 3 or 4 years old before August 1.

Our preschool teachers are degreed teachers who work with experienced classroom aides.

The curriculum is presented and taught in a variety of ways. Skills include cognitive, motor, creative arts and social/emotional skills in addition to hands-on science & nature, arts & crafts, and bible time.

The Teacher/Student ratio is 1:5 for 3 year olds - 2 half days - 10 students per class. The Teacher/Student ratio is 1:8 for 4 year olds - 2 or 3 half days - 16 students per class.
