We invite you to join us for our Open House to see what makes the St. Francis of Assisi Preschool so special. The Education Ministry Open House will showcase the many talents and accomplishments of our parish schools. Please stop by after the 11:30 Mass on January 27 for some refreshments and a chance to tour our parish schools. The Open House will feature the St. Francis of Assisi Preschool and for those who are interested in K-8 for their children can tour The Franciscan School. Both tours will begin in Fellowship Hall.

The St. Francis of Assisi Preschool offers a variety of innovative programs for children ages 2-5 years. Children in the Preschool participate in specials such as Music and Movement and Spanish and engage in age-appropriate faith formation and monthly service opportunities. Current research supports the importance of high-quality early education programs in the future success of children in their education, career options, and overall health. St. Francis Preschool strives to provide such an experience for students. Through the use of the Diocese of Raleigh Early Childhood Curriculum, we work to improve skills in all areas of a child’s development: spiritual; social, emotional; physical; and intellectual. 

Investing in early childhood education now can bring high returns in the future!
