Welcome to St. Mark Lutheran Church Preschool.
The preschool years are an important time in your child's life. We offer your child and you a positive environment which promotes social, intellectual, physical and spiritual growth. Our program provides your child a fun learning environment through which he/she can develop a variety of skills. Our emphases are in the areas of social interaction, fine and gross motor skills and early readiness skills.
The St. Mark Preschool staff is very excited about working with your children. The year will be a wonderful experience for your child and St. Mark Lutheran Church.
