We started with our daughter in St. Albert's free tot's program when she was 2 years old. We loved it so much that we decided to enroll her there for her first year of 3-year-old preschool. The staff and teachers are so caring and truly love what they do. The school feels like home and feels like family. The more we get involved with volunteering, sports, etc. it solidifies that we made the right decision. We are so happy with our decision to enroll her and look forward to many more years of our daughter attending St. Albert the Great!

The word FAMILY defines this school. It has great class sizes and each and every teacher and staff member cares for the children as if they were their own. I can trust on countless other parents to help support in any time of need from drop off to pick up. The clubs and activities including Violin, cooking, dance, and more are second to none and we have excellent athletic opportunities as well. All starting st the Pre-K level! I am beyond thrilled to have chosen St. Albert the Great as the school for my child.
