Why Choose St Pat’s

Our preschool program, grounded in the Catholic faith, nurtures each child as a unique gift from God. We support their spiritual, social-emotional, physical, and cognitive development in a caring, faith-filled environment. Our students explore, ask questions, and solve problems through play-based, hands-on experiences that foster critical thinking and curiosity. Academic skills are introduced using developmentally appropriate guidelines, to ensure learning is joyful, meaningful, and respectful of each child’s readiness.
