About this preschool

St. Pius Preschool is a Montessori-inspired school serving children aged 3 to 5, grounded in Catholic faith and partnering with families, parish, and community. The school focuses on holistic development with individually tailored materials that promote spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social, and physical growth.

The teacher serves as a guide based on observation of each child, with the child's individual interests and development determining the materials offered for exploration.
