Mrs. Heather's Welcome
St. Edward’s Preschool and VPK believes that a nurturing environment allows a young child to feel safe and comfortable and encourages the development of a positive self-concept. A stimulating, hands-on learning environment with developmentally appropriate materials enhances play and exploration, encourages social and emotional development, and supports physical development.
