Letters from Preschool/Childcare Parents

Enrolling your child in the right preschool program is important, because not only is the child's education at stake, but the peace of mind of the parents. That is why I sent my oldest son to St. Paul’s and currently have my middle child enrolled in the preschool program.

The preschool program is not only faith–based, but it is educational. My son comes home with beautiful projects daily. Not to mention that he wakes up each day asking if he can go to “Jesus School” today. He prays each day at dinner and before he goes to bed and thanks Jesus for his friends and teachers. He comes home every day so proud of his projects and accomplishments. I believe that is due to the nurturing environment at St. Paul’s. We would not have him in any other preschool program. We are blessed to have found such a wonderful and caring staff at St. Paul’s. Keep up the great work!

Our daughter A. has been attending St. Paul’s since early Sept. 2006. She is very excited about her school and teachers. She is proud to share the songs and prayers she has learned, eagerly tells of the day’s activities, and most of all speaks of the friends she has made in her class. A. is always eager to return to school each day.

Mrs. Bachert and Mrs. Mackowski have been wonderful in helping A. start school. Both exhibit a genuine Christian concern for her in their words and actions. Both are guiding A. in her Christian education and providing her with a great foundation in pre–kindergarten that is the first stepping-stone in in her academic success. We could not have asked for two better teachers for our daughter. St. Paul’s is a wonderful school to achieve not only an excellent foundation in education but a Christ–centered education for other children.

We have found St. Paul’s full day Preschool to be a loving and nurturing Christ–centered environment for our four–year–old daughter. L. just loves going to preschool and asks when she can go to school next on days when she is home. The adjustment has gone very smoothly for L and for Mom and Dad as well. We feel confident that we are leaving our daughter in a secure, loving Christian environment each day, which provides great comfort for us as parents. L. is learning skills that will ready her for kindergarten, and so enjoys the new friends she has made. We have not experienced a single problem in her socialization with the other children. They are taught to be respectful and kind to one another and greet each other in a friendly way with hugs and hellos in the morning and good–byes at the end of the day. There are always well-organized activities going on that she can participate in. Lauren is attempting to read and recognize words. She is also counting and recognizing numbers. She enjoys crafts time and is doing a great job coloring. We were surprised and delighted at how quickly she learned to write her name after beginning Preschool. It is evident how dedicated the staff is to the children and to providing a high quality Christ–focused learning experience for them. We love Mrs. Lessner.

Communication between staff and family is good, and the weekly classroom newsletter helps keep us informed about what L. is learning each week. The facilities are clean, bright, and well-maintained. We love seeing the sign that says, “Jesus Loves You” each morning as we enter the doors.

We would very highly recommend St. Paul’s Preschool to other families and are thankful to the Lord for leading us here. We are seriously considering transferring our older son from the public school to St. Paul’s for grades 6–8, based upon our experience.
