Optional Kindergarten Enrichment meets Tueday and Tursday, 8:45 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Children entering Kindergarten must be five by September 1 of the current school year. Families that seek enrollment for their child born after September 1 and before December 1 may request an exception.
Kindergarten is designed to be a pleasurable learning experience, and directs the child to a better understanding of himself, his relationship to others, and his relationship to God. The goals that we strive for emphasize experiential development and self-recognition as God's children in God's world. Some of the areas we expect the kindergarten child to develop are personal, social, emotional, motor development, cognitive, language, mathematics, science, reading readiness, and appreciation of the arts.
