St. Thomas More is very proud of its Preschool program which is designed to be an extension of the family. Our program has been carefully developed for the enrichment of the whole child within a loving, Catholic environment. We give special attention to the developmental stages, skills, and needs of our children, while encouraging and nurturing each child’s God-given talents. Our goal is to make preschool a positive, rewarding and fun, growing experience for the child; intellectually, physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually.
Hours of operation are 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. In addition to the time spent in their classroom, the children also participate in music, physical education, and worship once a week. These “specials” are instructed by other teachers so they also learn to transition from their classroom to other areas of the schools and/or other classrooms.
The children enjoy a light snack in the early morning and then have lunch later in the day. Parents must pack their snack & lunch for them as well as bring a water bottle daily.
Our classes are limited to 8 children with a teacher and an assistant for the 18 month olds to 12 children with a teacher and an assistant for all other age groups. The teachers and the assistants are all licensed and are required to participate in 24 hours of training annually. This training includes CPR, child abuse prevention as well as other academic and related areas that assist them with working with young children. All staff members have passed a background and fingerprint check and are required to attend Ethics and Integrity in Ministry training through the Diocese of Austin.
The preschool has two spacious playgrounds with safe and age-appropriate equipment. We also have several riding toys that the children use on the cemented area of the playgrounds. In addition, the playgrounds are shaded so we are able to use them year round. The children get outside playtime every day; on bad weather days, we do not take the children outdoors.
We offer tours by appointment only Monday-Thursday 10 a.m. - 12 noon Please call our Preschool to schedule your tour. Children are WELCOME! Give us a call to schedule a time (512) 258-1721.
