We believe that all children are unique in regards to developmental level, life experiences and cultural diversity; therefore it is important to meet each child at their level and help them grow. Children are able to learn basic skills through play and exploration. Social skills, motor skills, and creativity are all developed and encouraged through center rotations. Most importantly we want children to learn and have fun and in a safe and caring environment. St. John Preschool provides a warm and welcoming environment that is filled with engaging hands on activities that challenge each child to learn and grow. We are blessed to be able to also provide a faith filled program that embraces each child while focusing on God&rsquo;s love. Our curriculum follows the guidelines set by the Kansas City Diocese and it is enhanced with weekly class of Spanish, Art, Music, PE, Technology, and Library.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e1705-e12 m1bd-0 m1bd-3 m1bd-4\"><p>In order to provide the best learning experience for your child, it is very important that we create a partnership between the school and home.
