Pre-Kindergarten

The goal of Pre-Kindergarten at St. Francis de Sales Cathedral School is to allow each child to grow spiritually, socially, physically, emotionally, and cognitively. Preschoolers are taught Christian values through the encouragement of sharing, good decision making, taking turns, and being respectful to classmates and teachers.
