Children are kept engaged as we follow a Daily Schedule. We do preschool activities, which include: circle time, storytelling, music, arts & crafts. We keep children structure so they don't feel bored throughout the day. I also do basic introduction to colors, numbers, shapes body parts with ages 1-3. All these are taught through learning games, stories, dancing and singing and finger painting. I provide manipulative activities to develop eye-hand coordination, and fine motor skills as using preschool scissor. At 18 months I do toilet training. Children learn to share, take turns and clean up after done playing. Children ages 3 and Pre-K we teach to write first name and recognize the letters of his/her name, numbers (1-10), alphabets letters, patterns, day of the weeks and months. Twice a month children will participate in cooking activities. These will help children to wait and follow simple directions. Children are involved in dramatic play, music and movement exercises is practiced on a daily basis. Children get free playtime activities inside and outside. I also do before and after school (Lorne and Dearborn Elementary). I also help with homework. I accept subsidized programs as CCRC. We offer part time and full time. Drop-in care is available for those needing occasional care.

We are a private, Christian school established in 2005 with a philosophy to raise well-rounded Christian children. At St. Mary School, each child is treated as a unique gift of God, trusting that if the Lord Christ, Himself, is at the center and heart of a child from their early beginnings, they will grow to become a positive presence to our community and society. We believe that every moment is a teachable moment and an opportunity to build a better Christian student. We look at a child from a holistic perspective, which includes their family, school, and environment. We offer all our experience to bring our children to their fullest potential. Our experienced and loving teachers provide a fun, quality education in a safe and pleasant atmosphere. We offer large, well-equipped classrooms with small class sizes in order to provide personal attention to each child.

Preschool
St. Stephen's preschool provides an environment rich in opportunity, with our focuses being in social/emotional learning, STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, math) and language and literacy learning through every day play and exploration. The classroom and outdoor environments are a key part of the learning process and enhance the experiences of children by providing natural elements and activities across all early childhood developmental domains. We feel that all children need an environment that will respect their right to question, experiment and develop at their own pace. Our low teacher to child ratio, 1:6, sets us apart from preschools in the area, as well as the longevity of our teachers. Most of our teachers have had their children come through our program and have been here for more than 15 years. We offer both full and part time programs for ages 2-5, have a wonderful parent community, enrichment classes and fun events year-round. We also have a parent and tot program on Fridays for children who are at least one year old and walking. St. Stephen's Preschool is a ministry of St. Stephen's church and the Reverend Christopher Montella leads a fun and age-appropriate chapel bi-weekly that is optional for families. All are welcome. Tuition ranges and depends on days and schedule child attends. Enrollment and tours happen all year round!
