Pre-School Philosophy and Curriculum

Our goal is to give your child a positive educational and spiritual foundation that he or she can build upon in future learning. Multi-sensory activities will keep your child engaged and promote a love of learning. Students will learn to follow school routines. Our classes provide a Catholic education through which gospel values are presented, lived and fostered. Your child will be encouraged to develop a healthy self-image and a respect for others while preparing for Kindergarten using the Pre-Kindergarten Curriculum and Academic Guidelines prepared by the Diocese of Cleveland, which aligns with the Ohio Department of Education Early Learning Content Standards. The Pre-School class attends Related Academics Classes, including Art, Physical Education, Spanish and STEM, helping our students learn to navigate the entire St. Anthony of Padua School campus.
