Half Day Preschool

ALL SAINTS PRESCHOOL

Where Small Ratios Mean BIG Learning!

We go beyond the minimum state requirements to provide your child with the best start!

While the state ratio is 1:10, we cap our classrooms at just 11 children—and always staff them with two dedicated teachers that stay in the classroom! This creates a uniquely small ratio (often as low as 1:6) that is essential for development. We have class sizes that range from 6 to 11 kiddos and always have two teachers in each classroom.

Why does this matter? Our small class sizes ensure every child receives the individualized attention needed for:
  • Secure attachments and strong social-emotional growth.
  • Targeted cognitive stimulation and better language development.
  • A calm, focused, and safe learning environment!

Give your child the gift of focused care and quality education. Enroll today!
