Saint John Catholic School Offers a Combination of Options for
3- and 4 Year-Old Pre-Kindergarten
The Pre-K Program at Saint John Catholic School provides a means whereby parents can have their children educated in a Catholic and Christian atmosphere. The spiritual, emotional, intellectual, physical and social growth of the young child is addressed in a developmentally appropriate setting. Lessons are planned using Pennsylvania Pre-K standards. A combined class increases student opportunity for socialization and leadership, as well as enrichment or remediation. There are times the two classes meet together, and times they meet separately. Our large classrooms allow ample space for movement and a variety of activities and lessons happening concurrently. Our 4-year-olds have the increased opportunities of weekly Art and Music classes, and also attend Mass monthly with the elementary aged students.
