ABOUT
The Little Friends of Jesus Nursery School was established in 2009 and is open to all children ages 2 1/2 to 6 regardless of creed, color, race or ethnic background.
We provide a safe, stimulating educational environment enabling every child to reach their full potential.
Our educational program allows for kindergarten preparation and helps ensure that they are ready for all of the school years to come.
We offer flexible half-day, full-day and extended-care options, 3 - 5 days per week. Nutritious meals are prepared on-site and included with tuition.
We also provide Kindergarten enrichment for children enrolled elsewhere in half-day programs and offer camp in the Summer.
Our Mission
At LFOJ, our mission is to nurture the whole child academically, socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually within a loving, faith-centered learning environment. We are dedicated to fostering a lifelong love of learning while respecting each child’s individual
pace of development. Our goal is to lay a strong foundation for future success by providing a safe, supportive, and inclusive atmosphere where every child feels known, valued, and inspired.
Our Philosophy
We believe that children learn best through play, exploration, and positive relationships. At LFOJ, we create enriching experiences that support growth across all developmental areas. We value the unique gifts of each child and encourage them through praise, encouragement, and discovery. Strong partnerships with families and a stable, caring environment are key to our philosophy, ensuring each child feels secure, confident, and eager to learn.
Our Learning Approach
Our learning approach combines creativity with a standard curriculum: At our school, we believe that children learn best when they are both challenged and inspired. That’s why we blend a solid, structured curriculum with creative and engaging learning experiences.
The standard curriculum ensures your child is meeting key academic goals in subjects like math, reading, science, and social studies, preparing them for future success in school and beyond.
We also incorporate creative learning methods like hands-on projects, storytelling, arts, exploration, and problem-solving activities so that your child can think critically, express themselves, and truly enjoy the process of learning.
This balanced approach not only helps your child achieve academic excellence but also nurtures their imagination, confidence, and love of learning.
