The 4-Year Old Program spends time preparing children for the transition to Kindergarten and works with the La Salle School to make this transition as easy as possible for students.
5-Year Old Nursery School Program
This program has been created to support families with children attending Kindergarten at La Salle School on the EVEN and ODD day schedule. With the high Kindergarten enrollment this year, our community is facing a childcare shortage. In response, we are pleased to offer a 5-year-old program within our community.
