St. Joseph’s Preschool is committed to excellence in early childhood education by providing a nurturing, faith-based environment, that allows a child to grow and develop at his or her own pace.
As a Catholic preschool, our child-focused mission is to teach and celebrate our faith, by integrating it throughout each day. Our curriculum utilizes themes to develop the cognitive, spiritual, social, emotional, and physical growth of the preschool child.
We believe play is the work of the young child; therefore, our classrooms encourage safe and creative play.
St. Joseph’s Preschool is committed to developing a partnership with parents to foster the unique and God-given gifts within each student.
Our program philosophy is simple:
We support the emerging Kindergarten readiness skills of 3, 4, and 5-year-olds through developmentally-appropriate, hands-on opportunities so they can discover more about themselves and God’s wonderful world!
Our loving and creative environment encourages each learner to:
We achieve these goals through age-appropriate, structured and non-structured activities that stimulate curiosity and develop early academic success. The preschool day consists of faith-based learning; literacy-based experiences; hands-on math and science exploration; fine and large motor skill development; and free play choices that prepare the student for the Kindergarten year and beyond.
Most importantly, our staff seeks to make preschool a delight, so that a love of learning is fostered in each beloved child of God!
St. Joseph's Preschool is a licensed childcare program of the State of Minnesota in good standing since we opened in 2008.
