Our Pre-K program is a five-day session with mornings and afternoons available.  We also offer an additional extended day option.  Class sizes are limited to 16 with a full-time teacher and a full-time aide.  Students also have the chance to interact with the upper grade students, as 7th and 8th graders from Saint Anne's offer assistance to the children.
