The Kindergarten Program

We offer two classes of the program, morning (9:15 a.m. - 12:15 Noon) and all day (7:20am - 1:55 p.m.).  Our kindergarten follows the curriculum guidelines provided by the Diocese of Covington.  We  include in our curriculum a phonics approach to language included in The Letter People curriculum by Abrams & Co.  Students also learn math skills using manipulatives and our Harcourt Brace series.  Other aspects of the program include calendar time which reinforces math skills, patterning, and counting by 5's and 10's.  Students are introduced to various units throughout the school year.  Science and Social Studies are covered in these units.  Our kindergarten students receive religious education through classroom activities presented by the teacher and also by the priest and deacon that visit the class to discuss what's on the minds of these little ones!  Prayer services and education about the church building itself take place in the church also.
