Our PreSchool
Kathy Jones, Director
St. Philip Nursery School offers a warm and friendly pre-school setting. The facility is operated by St. Philip Lutheran Church and is licensed by the Michigan Department of Social Services.
The staff consists of a teacher and two assistants for each session. Maximum group size for each session is limited to 21 children ranging in age from 2 1/2 to 5 years of age.
Together we explore the world around us and help the children grow socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. We encourage self expression through communications and the arts. Positive and supportive experiences always build self-confidence.
