Following the success of our pilot program last summer, we are committed to providing an enriching, continuous learning experience for our youngest learners.
This expansion allows us to offer a year-round, faith-centered educational environment that supports the academic, social, emotional, and spiritual growth of young children.

Why Choose St. Anthony Catholic School’s 3K/4K Year-Round Program?

Our year-round preschool programs provide a balanced approach with a variety of age-appropriate activities and lessons that focus on developing key skills in a stimulating environment. Academic Excellence: Children will develop early academic skills in reading, writing, and math, preparing them for a lifetime of learning. Social Growth: Through play and collaboration, children will learn essential social skills, such as sharing, listening, and cooperation. Spiritual Development: Children will grow spiritually through Catholic teachings and community values, experiencing God’s love in a meaningful way.
