Pre-K3 / Pre-K4 / K Program Information Saint Michael the Archangel Catholic School offers two Pre-Kindergarten programs, one for children two years away from Kindergarten (Pre-K3), one for children who will be entering Kindergarten the following school year (Pre-K4) and Kindergarten. Our Pre-K 3/4/ K Programs offer children a nurturing learning environment that is caring, challenging, hands on, and academically developmental. Since we believe our children should enjoy their time here, there are also many fun activities. Appropriate child-centered experiences are provided to stimulate inquisitiveness and to develop the child’s self-assurance and independence. Our programs provide many hands-on-learning experiences in an academic readiness environment. Language is developed through a multitude of methods. Songs, plays, poems, and stories are just some of them. Centers are provided where children can experience a variety of sensory experiences in an individual or group setting. Gross and fine motor skills are developed through physical activities, play, and the creative arts. Through songs, storytelling of scripture, prayers, games, and art activities, the children learn about God's great love for each of us. Pre K 3 / Pre K 4 and Kindergarten are also part of the NDS Hot Lunch Program. (Please note: soda and fast foods are prohibited in our program.) Our children will also be given technology instruction in our computer lab. To provide the most up-to-date communication, the Pre-K 3 / 4 / Programs will soon have their website linked to the school’s main website at www. sma-pa.org. the Kindergarten program already is linked. If you are interested in registering your child in one of our fine programs, please call our school at 215-943-0222, or email me at [email protected] for more information. Thank you! God bless!
