Our Mission StatementSt. Margaret’s Day School provides children with an opportunity to learn about themselves and the world around them. St. Margaret's produces ample opportunities for the children to explore, experiment, create and feel successful while learning. Young children need the opportunity to grow relationships with other children of similar ages socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually, and spiritually. These goals are best achieved in a warm, open learning environment, facilitated by professional, caring adults. The curriculum reflect each child's own unique needs, interests and level of development.Experiences provided help children become self-reliant, self-motivated, and self-assured. Children are encouraged to reach their fullest potential in a safe environment filled with friends.

Our Philosophy Of Education
We offer a comprehensive program dedicated to the personal development and growth of each child through a curriculum of creative play and developmentally appropriate activities. We teach them to learn about sharing and the feelings of others; how to get along with their peers, and how to follow directions. Your children will thrive in the hands of our loving and experienced staff. Our goal is for the students to feel good about who they are and excited about who they can be.
Our curriculum includes a full program of emergent math and early literacy activities, which are consistent with the most current philosophies of early childhood education. We also emphasize science, music, movement, art, drama, cooking, and social skills appropriate to the age level of the children. We want children to experience the excitement of learning about the world around them. Each class includes thematic units with developmentally appropriate goals and objectives. Throughout the school year, we offer multiple opportunities, at various times in the day and evening, for families to participate in their children’s school experience.
