Good Samaritan Pre-K (4 Year Old Program)

The Pre-K program at Good Samaritan is for children who will turn 5 by December 2 and move on to Kindergarten the following fall. The teacher/student ratio is 1/12. The group size is no larger than 16.

The primary goal of our 4 year old program is to provide developmental education for our children that will prepare them to move up to Kindergarten. Children in this program are exposed to the literacy, art, math and science concepts necessary for success entering Kindergarten in the fall.

We offer opportunities for our children to participate interactive circle time activities. We recognize that 4 year old children are active and have many interests, so each day consists of a variety of quiet and active activities as well as group and individual choice activities. The teacher is a catalyst in the child’s learning and provides guidance and opportunities to develop a well rounded child.

The curriculum for the 4’s enables children to master certain academic concepts prior to Kindergarten as well as offering 4 year old children opportunities to exercise some independence and choice. We believe our program provides a balance of structured and independent activity.
