St. Teresa Preschool's classes are full for 2010-11, with a low student to teacher ratio of 7 to 1. We are ready for a year of fun and learning. We enjoy weekly Mass geared just to the preschoolers. We are going on a fieldtrip, and visitors to our school include firefighters, veterans, a tumbling teacher, LA Sweets, and Bob the Bus.
Construction has begun on a new gym and new preschool classrooms. Open enrollment for 2011-12 will begin March 1, 2011. |
