Children will not only familiarize with healthy foods, but learn to carry on healthy eating habits as they grow. Your children will also learn to read and write, child develop skills; learn how to get along well with others. We want the children who graduate from our program more ready to adapt to school, more eager to play with others, and a little more curious about the world around them.
Early Childhood and Education and Preschool ages 2-5.
At the Laura Vicuña Pre-Kindergarten of Saints Peter and Paul School, we create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for children ages 2.9 to 5 years, where they are encouraged to grow physically, intellectually, socially, emotionally, and creatively. Each day is rich with discovery as children explore letters and numbers, words and pictures, ideas and hands-on experiences. While we honor each child’s individuality and tailor our teaching to meet their unique needs, we also emphasize essential early learning skills. Language development, reading readiness, foundational math concepts, and social skills are thoughtfully woven into daily experiences in art, music, science, language, and both indoor and outdoor play. We are equally committed to nurturing moral values, building self-esteem, and fostering problem-solving skills that help children grow into confident, compassionate learners.

St. Mary's Preschool has a balanced bilingual program and curriculum, Mandarin and English, focused heavily on proficient comprehension of the complexities of meaning and grammar. The students think more creatively than their monolingual peers and understand the subtle nuances of words. They also demonstrate a more highly developed ability to vary word usage based on the needs of the listener. Crucial to achieving this is ensuring that the two languages of instruction share the same system - alphabetic or pictorial, based on the Montessori philosophy.
