K3 & K4

K3 - K4

Our K3 and K4 programs are thoughtfully designed to meet children where they are developmentally and support learning at each stage of growth. Rather than combining age groups, each classroom provides age-appropriate instruction, experiences, and expectations tailored to the needs of its students.

At Charleston Catholic, we follow the Creative Curriculum, a research-based approach that encourages children to learn through hands-on exploration, meaningful play, and real-life experiences. Through engaging activities, purposeful learning centers, small-group instruction, outdoor exploration, and daily routines, students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, social-emotional, and early academic skills.

Our classrooms provide a nurturing environment where children build confidence, independence, and a love of learning. The daily schedule includes opportunities for structured learning, creative play, outdoor recreation, special area classes, and rest, creating a balanced and engaging experience for every child.

The goal of our preschool and pre-kindergarten programs is to foster growth in all areas of development while preparing students to enter kindergarten with the skills, confidence, and enthusiasm needed for success.

Our Kindergarten program provides a strong foundation for our students. The K5 curriculum includes instruction in the areas of Reading, ELA, Writing, Math, Science, Social Studies, and Religion. In addition, K5 students participate in Art, Spanish, Technology, Library, and PE (twice a week). Time is set aside every afternoon for centers and free play. This time encourages our students to make connections with the world around them, develop socially, practice, apply, and extend new learning.
