ST JOHN PRESCHOOL INFORMATION FOR THE 2023-2024 SCHOOL YEAR

Call (502) 753-1768 for more information or to schedule a tour.


St John Preschool is an outreach ministry of St John United Methodist Church. We believe each child is a unique individual created by God.  Our goal is to encourage confident, independent learners.

St John Preschool takes a Christian Based/Thematic approach, implementing developmentally appropriate activities.  Curriculum is driven by developmental checklists (aligned with the Kentucky Standards), and is teacher-generated from many resources, including: preschool Bibles, NAEYC guidelines, Handwriting Without Tears, Singapore Math, children’s literature, resource texts, and Internet sources.  Toddler programs are organized play groups incorporating developmentally appropriate skills and activities.
