Overview
Our Lady’s Little Christians is an early-learning
program for children, three and four years-of-age, licensed by the
Maryland State Department of
Education, Office of Child Care. We adhere to all guidelines set forth by the
Archdiocese of Washington. We are a nonprofit operation, funded solely by the
tuition charged for each student.
We offer small class sizes, a weekly chapel service,
an introduction to Spanish, an introduction to Sign Language, a two- or
three-day program for three-year-olds, a five-day program for four-year-olds,
and three-hour classes for all of our morning and afternoon sessions.
The goals of our program are as follows:
1. To foster growth and development (physical,
social, emotional).
2. To foster skill development (knowledge,
creativity, independence).
3. To create a spiritual atmosphere in which a
positive self-image can be built.
4. To provide the best early childhood education
for our students.
Our Lady’s Little Christians is guided and supported by an
advisory board which consists of parents and parishioners of Our Lady Help of
Christians Catholic Church. The preschool board meets regularly. Meetings
will be announced in the monthly preschool newsletters.
