Children in Shepherd's Preschool enjoy:

Kindergarten Readiness
Divine Shepherd Preschool is dedicated to providing students with the resources they will need to enter kindergarten with confidence and ability. Early numbers and reading skills are stressed, as well as social interaction skills and problem solving.

Creative Play Experiences
Our play-based program is centered around planned interest areas such as art, dramatic play, blocks, math & manipulatives, science, music & movement, and language/reading readiness.

Group Time Experiences
Stories, songs, show & tell, discussions, exposure to colors, numbers, letter sounds, shapes, size and name recognition are just a few of the items covered in our Group Time.

Field Trips
We take monthly trips to places such as apple orchards, pumpkin patches, nature centers, farms, museums, as well as taking seasonal and thematic walks.

Outdoor Play
Our church campus provides a fenced play yard containing equipment for large muscle movement. We go outdoors every day the weather will permit.

Divine Shepherd's Pre-School is a Christian School administered under the direction of Divine Shepherd Lutheran Church.

Shannon Lavigne, our school's director and lead teacher, is an experienced and caring Christian teacher with a bachelor's degree in Elementary/Early Childhood Education, as well as the proper endorsements to conduct a program such as ours in a nurturing environment. All other teachers and assistants are required by the congregation's Ministry of Education to have both the proper educational and experiential background to work with young children and their families.

Divine Shepherd Lutheran Preschool admits students of any race, color, nation and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, and activities generally accorded or made available to students of the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its policies and programs. However, enrollment is limited to those who are considered within the range of "normal" (emotionally and mentally) since we are not staffed and equipped to adequately serve the needs of children beyond this range.
