Registration is OPEN for the 2023-2024 school year. This school year marks the 40th year that Saint Columbkill Preschool has offered quality education to children in Boyertown, PA, and the surrounding area. Our program provides learning experiences that are age and developmentally-appropriate. Currently, classes run from Labor Day week until the end of May.
We are offering two separate classes that meet two days a week for the 3-year-olds with approximately 7-10 children per class and two separate classes that meet three days a week for the 4-year-olds. Each class is staffed with one certified teacher and one aide, all of whom have state police background clearance.
The preschool curriculum encompasses the social, emotional, physical, and spiritual development of each child while following the Pennsylvania Early Learning Standards. Our program also includes monthly physical education classes led by YMCA instructors. Our holiday parties (Halloween, Valentine's Day, and Easter) offer an opportunity for the 3 and 4-year-old classes to interact with one another. Each class presents a Christmas Program for the parents. End-of-year parent conferences are held for each child. In addition to our annual field trip, we try to incorporate a number of additional special activities each year, which will be subject to resource and parent availability. Past examples included a Teddy Bear Hospital and handwashing clinic, dental hygienist presentation, and fire safety and police programs.
Research indicates that quality early childhood education has positive and lasting benefits for young children. It is our hope to have this journey be a fun and meaningful experience ABC Blocks for each child.
Enrollment is on a first-come-first-served basis. To be eligible for enrollment, a child must reach the age of 3 by September 1st. Tuition for the 2023-2024 school year is $105/month or a total of $945.00 for the year for the 3-year-old classes and $125/month or a total of $1125.00 for the 4-year-old classes. Tuition reduction is offered to families with more than one child. Discounts for advanced payments are also available.
