the vision

Our vision is to nurture the well-rounded growth of our kids by offering opportunities that enhance their intellect, social skills, spirituality, emotions, and physical abilities. Our approach focuses on fostering a lifelong curiosity and appreciation for spirituality and culture. Through an educational philosophy and curriculum tailored to each child's unique pace, we elevate them to their fullest potential.

support

As part of the tuition structure of Saint Demetrios Pre-School, families contribute 10 hours of service per family each school year! You can help out in many ways, and if you volunteer during summer, your hours count for the next year. Remember, hours can't carry over or be transferred between families. Both parents get credit if they work the same event. Just ensure your activities are school-related and approved. Let's make our school even better together!
