Why does my child need a change of clothes?
This is Preschool, and anything can happen. It is always convenient if there is an "accident" or spill, for there to be a change of clothes available. Sometimes, socks even have to be changed.Back to Top

When does the actual school day begin?
The late bell rings at 8:45. Our play time and transition time begins at 8:15 and ends with the late bell when we clean up the toys. It is in the best interest of the child to arrive at school between 8:15 and 8:30 to allow him/her to adjust to the routine of the day. Often we have activities that begin soon after the bell rings and it is difficult for a child to come in the classroom and have to move directly to an activity. This is especially true on chapel days (Wednesdays), class program days, and field trips. Our school day ends at 12:00.Back to Top

What about nap time?
Nap time begins after lunch. Your child should bring a cot-sized blanket to school and not a regular-sized blanket. They may also bring a small soft nap toy to sleep with. While they are not required to sleep, they must be quiet on their cot while the rest of the children sleep. Nap time is over at 3:00.Back to Top
