Preschool in Alexandria, VA 22305
Opening on September 6, 2011, Saint Rita Preschool is an exciting new venture for Saint Rita School and our families. Featuring the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, Saint Rita Preschool will be a wonderful introduction to both the social and academic world for our littlest students as well as a rich, varied environment designed to allow children to explore their Catholic Faith. The materials listed below are provided both for our registered families and for those who would like to know more about our programs for little lambs and little shepherds.

All children are created in Gods image and have great dignity.
We have an obligation to teach a strong, solid core curriculum, the tenets of the Catholic Faith and those habits of mind and traits of character that are essential for success in this world and the next.
We bring children closer to the Lord by:
loving each child in our care
offering each child Christian motivation
encouraging a spirit of joy
making provision for repentance
offering children a number of religious experiences
and basing all our policies and procedures on trust in God.
