Curriculum

We know that children learn best by doing. Every opportunity will be given to present concepts so our students can learn from experience and internalize their knowledge and discoveries. We believe that values of self-esteem, love, faith, hope, caring, sharing, forgiveness, honesty, and responsibility can be woven into all of our daily activities.

By highlighting Montessori Philosophy and Pedagogy, emphasizing the importance of Music and the Arts, Partnering with Families, and incorporating in Cognitive Based experiences, St. Paul's Guiding Light Preschool curriculum that promotes a lifetime of JOY in learning.  Our students thrive when given the opportunity to explore, research, design, invent, and lead.  

We promise to do all that we can to help set our students up for success and assist them in developing their strengths at a pace consistent with their given talents. We follow the child. This means that as they reveal their own interests and gifts, an individualized program is developed around each of them. Our goal is to guide our students so that they can clearly see themselves as being perfectly unique, wonderfully made, dearly loved, children of God.
