We are a state-licensed, non-profit preschool program administered by St. Timothy's Episcopal Church. We have been providing quality early education experiences since 1961. Our programs are designed to provide your child an atmosphere that facilitates respect for individuals, love for one another, and caring for each other in a manner that develops self-awareness, self-esteem, and self-reliance.
On any given day, you'll find children in our school learning through free-choice play in our indoor and outdoor centers; working in our garden; participating in one of our summer playdates; working toward an individual academic goal; or working as a whole-class group on a unit of study. We believe communication between teachers and parents is one of the keys to the success of your child's preschool experience.

Weekly, two-way communication is a required component of each classroom at St. Timothy's. Two-way communication is vital because we want parents to know that their comments, questions, or concerns are truly welcomed by the staff. Electronic communication is the preferred method of communication at our preschool because it's environmentally friendly, saves in paper and ink costs, and is very convenient for opening up the lines of communication.

We use Creative Curriculum as the inspiration for our classroom planning as well as for our individual student assessment. Each of our classrooms are physically arranged to support Interest Areas - one of the fundamental components of the curriculum.
