Preschool (3-5 Years)

Award-winning preschools in the St. Cloud area

Our preschool program offers a variety of student experiences that foster curiosity, independence, early life skills, and development of the whole child with a healthy balance of social and emotional learning.

Aligned to the Minnesota Early Childhood indicators of progress, our curriculum cultivates kindergarten readiness skills through Math and Reading preparedness, technology integrated learning and ample room for exploration. Our programs in Spanish, music, physical education, along with our faith foundation and mission of service, help each child grow through to their early years.

What Our Families Say

  • "We could not recommend St. Francis Xavier more highly. It’s been such a worthwhile investment for our family. A school our children love and a community that feels like family."

    —Allie Schiff

  • "We chose All Saints Academy because it is a Catholic School and the personalized one on one attention our daughters get. PreK teachers are awesome, they keep us updated daily and go the extra miles to give our daughters that one thing, so they can always stay ahead.  Also PreK offers 5 days school that works perfectly with our schedule."
