Pre-K Program
“Little Cougars”

Curriculum: At St. Cecilia School we base on curriculum development on the
Diocese of Providence Early Childhood Curriculum Standards, as well as aligning
them to the Rhode Island Early Learning and Development Standards.

- The goal of our “Little Cougars” program of St. Cecilia school is to establish
the foundation for a love of learning exploration.
- Our curriculum is based on a child-centered active learning environment for
the young child. We focus on the cognitive, social, emotional, physical, and
spiritual growth for each child.
- Through careful planning and with supportive teachers, we provide and
foster opportunities for children to initiate their own learning experiences.
- Children are encouraged to choose, explore, and practice skills using
various child-centered resources and planned activities which promote a
sense of self and independence.
