Preschool and PreKindergarten

preschool and prek learning

Villa Maria Academy’s Preschool was created as a place to educate the whole child.

Each age-appropriate activity provides a warm and nurturing learning environment that facilitates positive social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual development. Our caring teachers create a safe environment for kids to try out their newly learned skills.

Through music, circle time, learning centers and sensory rich activities, the children explore a new letter of the alphabet and number each week!  With the use of the Handwriting Without Tears, handwriting becomes exciting with lots of songs and rhymes for each letter.

We also utilize the theme-based Houghton Mifflin Splash Into PreK  curriculum to introduce concepts in language, math, social studies, and science.

Villa Maria Academy uses iPads and SMART interactive boards to engage students in 21st century learning. Each classroom is equipped with a SMART board and 5 iPads that can be shared to provide a 1:1 learning experience. Visit our STEM page to learn more about how we use STEM at Villa Maria.

Each day brings many opportunities for the children to develop a love for Jesus and learn how to be a good friend to Him and each other. The Loyola Press “God Made the World” program is used in the Pre-K classroom, and “Seeds” is used in the Preschool classroom. Students also attend special all-school liturgies in the Motherhouse’s Sacred Heart Chapel with the rest of the school community to introduce students to a life of faith.

The children are also active participants in Spanish, Music, Library, and Physical Education added value classes. These classes allow them to explore various topics with our different instructors.

We value education and want our daughter to be academically challenged, confident, kind and to experience many friendships. Villa’s all-girl experience partnered with the strong Catholic values and traditions are instrumental in forming the young lady she will become. Villa teachers focus on accommodating the needs of the individual student as well as building a strong school community and sisterhood.” – The Cappiello family
