Registration is now open for the 2019-2020 school year. This school year marks the 35th year that Saint Columbkill Preschool has offered quality education to children in Boyertown, PA and surrounding area. Our program provides learning experiences that are age and developmentally appropriate. There are approximately 50 children enrolled in the 3 and 4-year-old classes, which run from Labor Day week until the end of May. We offer two separate classes that meet 3 days a week for the 4-year-olds with approximately 15-16 children per class. Also, we're offering two separate classes that meet two days a week for the 3 year olds with approximately 7-10 children per class. 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 and the 4-year-old classes present an additional program in spring. Children in the 4-year-old classes will be introduced to conversational Spanish and will also have access to developmental activities using the iPad. We hold an end of year Fun Day (which involves all 60 children and a lot of parental  Hands help), concluding with a picnic. 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 hand washing 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.
