Parent Feedback:

 The Pre-K program at St. Matthew Catholic School has exceeded all of our expectations.  We can literally see our daughter growing academically and spiritually right before our eyes.  She can’t wait to go to school every day and as a two-parent working household, this makes us very happy with our decision to send her to St. Matthew.    We are grateful that our daughter has been given the opportunity to not only learn the skills needed for Kindergarten but equally if not more important – she is growing in her faith daily in a Catholic School environment.  We have found a second home and look forward to being part of the St. Matthew Catholic School family for years to come.  - Chris Skidmore


As the Director of Admissions for a Catholic high school, I see the high caliber of students who graduate from St. Matthew School. Enrolling my children at St. Matthew has always been a goal for my family, and it has been a wonderful experience. Because of his experience in Pre-K, my son has developed a deep interest in faith, has grown academically, and has been embraced socially. When I drop off my son at school, I know I am passing him from my arms to the loving arms of the St. Matthew family.” – Robert and Heather Rush


“The Pre-K program at St. Matthew Catholic School has been such a blessing for our daughter. We love that she is learning in a faith-filled environment with dedicated, caring teachers. We have seen so much growth in her social and academic skills throughout the year, and we know she will be more than ready to start kindergarten in the fall. Thank you for an amazing Pre-K experience!”- Monica and Chris Kowalski


"Our 3 kids started at St. Matthew at 4 years old in the pre-k program. And I cannot say enough great things about this school!  Their pre-K program is just exceptional. The kids have so much fun, learn so much,  and develop a strong sense of faith and kindness at such a young age. I loved listening to their little minds and hearts talk about their time at school each day!  It’s an extremely unique program and an experience you just don’t  find anywhere else!" - A. Klein


"The pre-k program at St. Matthew's is excellent.  I would  recommend it time and again.  Our son was immature and lacked confidence.  He blossomed under the program and continues doing well in school.  Sister Paulina, the director, has each child's best interest at heart and provides an enriched education and a nurturing and structured environment with a strong faith based foundation.  The program helps guide each child on his/her  transition from preschool to elementary and sets them up for future successes". - Stephanie D'Amico
