Mission Statement

St. Joseph and Mary, Queen of Peace Preschools are devoted to providing a quality early childhood program within a warm and caring Catholic community and the community at large. The environment is rich in materials that promote the spiritual, physical, creative, social, emotional and intellectual growth of young children. We foster a love of learning while developing kindergarten readiness skills. We value the uniqueness of each child and seek to teach an awareness of being loved by God.
