St. Bridget Preschool Philosophy
The primary purpose of St. Bridget preschool program is
to
provide a transition from home to a school
atmosphere. While
recognizing that family relationships
provide the young child
with the best model for
developing attitudes, values and
appropriate behavior.
The St. Bridget Preschool program offers
the preschool
aged child an opportunity for interaction with
other
children and adults in an atmosphere of Christian love
and concern. The preschool program promotes the
spiritual,
intellectual, social and physical growth of
the young child in a
creative learning environment
through age appropriate
development experiences and play
activities.
