LITTLE DISCIPLES PRESCHOOL

Little Disciples Preschool opened Fall 2020 and provides full-day preschool to four year old children. We believe in celebrating the innocence of early learners and encouraging their sense of wonder. Little Disciples Preschool will prepare children for their academic journey. The children will learn the culture of school in a structured, inclusive environment and have the opportunity for intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual growth. For your convenience, two dismissal times will be offered, one before rest time as well as the end of the day.

We are now registering 4-year old students for the 2021-2022 school year with a maximum class size of 18.  Effective March 15, any remaining spots will be opened to 3-year old students.
