Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the Kingdom of God.

Our mission is to provide the best possible environment for your child to grow in love, learning, and creativity.

 

St. Dominic’s is a Catholic school environment, where the Gospel and its values are at the forefront and provides the necessary conditions for young learners to grow in knowledge and spiritual grace.

 

The Nursery and Pre-K programs are: 

Five half-days
8:30 am to 11:30 am

Five full days
8:30 am to 2:30 pm

 

Our early childhood programs feature hands-on play with a focus on the following areas of study: Math, Language Arts, Cultural Studies, and Practical Life.  Our seasoned teachers nurture the children so that parents can rest assured that their children are in safe, caring hands. 

 

Our multi-age classrooms are child-centered and designed around a sensory-motor approach to learning.  Children move independently through the classroom once they are introduced to new material.  They choose activities from various areas.  In doing so, they learn order, coordination, concentration, and independence, which fosters social development. 

 

Younger kids learn from older kids, and older kids share their received knowledge with younger classmates.  The presence of older students reinforces skills they have learned, in turn helping younger students acquire and exercise those same skills.
