School Philosophy & Day in the Life

School Philosophy and Mission

"Recognizing that a preschool experience is the child’s first step into the world beyond the family, we strive to be accepting of the child as a unique individual, aware of individual emotional and educational needs, loving and supportive. Within this context, it is our goal to provide challenging new experiences, opportunities to build relationships with other children and adults, and a rich variety of activities leading to mastery of appropriate skills and overall school readiness.
At the Holy Cross Preschool, it is our aim to provide an environment for optimal growth within a developmentally appropriate framework. We are committed to allowing each child the opportunity to learn at his/her own level and to experience success as mastery advances. It is our job to create the finest environment in which that can happen.
