Our Philosophy
Our Early Childhood Center is foremost a Catholic School where two, three, four and five year olds are given opportunities to develop spiritually, socially, physically, emotionally and intellectually. Each child is a special little human being with individual needs. St. Ignatius provides the a staff, program and enviroment to enhance the growth and development of young children. To accomplish our task, we work closely with parents in a complementary manner. We are dedicated to the goal of providing developmentally appropriate programs aimed at total child development.
