Programs
Dogwood Preschool Program: Dogwood Preschool was created on November 2, 2020, and had a successful third school year that began in September 2023 and ran through May 2024. Dogwood?s third year welcomed and served 101 students between 16 months and 5 years old and their families by providing a preschool program that offers each student rich choices and intentional play-based learning. The 101 students filled our 2 day orange rooms across 2 different classrooms, purple rooms 3 day and 4 day across 2 different classrooms, red room 1, 4 day classroom, and 5-day program green, blue, and yellow rooms, all 5 day for 3 classrooms. As part of our curriculum, we provide our children with movement, music, and catechesis classes that are provided on a weekly basis. Our daily program runs from 9:00 am until 12:00pm with options for early morning drop off and after school lunch bunch. In addition to our traditional preschool program, we offer supplemental programs for families that include hour-long enrichment programs that are lead and customized by our teachers as well as Tother outside groups/organizations.
