Grace Preschool is in its 33rd year of serving the community and its surrounding neighborhoods.
In that time, over 850 children have attended the school. Since its inception, the emphasis at Grace has been on the child’s emotional and physical development, as well as cognitive skills.
We concentrate on school “readiness.” School is fun . . learning is fun.
There is structure in music, art, science, etc.
The emphasis is on ideas, understanding, and insight. And then there is love! Mrs. Dolores Hoefel has been the director since 1985 and with her have come many wonderful and innovative additions to the school. Several years ago, we successfully added an extended day program in addition to our regular morning hours.
This year, the school is proud to say that two of our children were non-English speaking when they enrolled. Thanks to the help of our director, the child from Russia and the child from Yugoslavia are now able to communicate with their classmates and feel very comfortable in their surroundings. Gearing up for our 34th year, we invite guests to call and visit the school. Hours: Mon.& Fri., 8:30am- 11:45am; Tues., Wed., Thurs. 8:30am-2pm. Enrollments for the coming year are now being accepted.
