Preschool

The beginning of a student’s journey at Blessed Miguel Pro starts in preschool. We cultivate wonder and lifelong learning through intentional play and experiences. Students learn independence and social-emotional skills that build a foundation for resilience, negotiating needs, and critical thinking.

Our Philosophy and Purpose

  • We believe that parents and family are the first and primary teachers of their children.

  • We believe that the preschool experience should be an extension of the family and a bridge into grade school years for both child and family.

  • We believe that teaching to the whole child is important. Fostering a love of learning and a love for God helps build recognition of self-worth.

  • We believe that through the guidance of qualified teachers the best learning occurs through play and exploration as well as through various pre-planned activities that are intended to provide opportunities for the child to interact, explore and relate successfully in his/her environment.
