Preschool Enrichments

Saint Michael Episcopal School offers a number of different Enrichments and will be assigned by class to maintain class cohorts. See Enrichment class descriptions below.

Enrichments are 30-45 minutes in the afternoon and taught by outside instructors. Half-Day PreK students who stay for Enrichment spend the remainder of the afternoon with their classmates and teacher doing various student-led activities.

Full-Day PreK and Kindergarten students also participate in one Enrichment each day.

The skills they learn today will be part of how they meet the challenges of tomorrow.
