St. Augustine Cathedral School

SCHOOL AGE – PRESCHOOL
St. Augustine located at 600 W. Michigan Ave. Kalamazoo is an ideal location for a preschool with its fully-licensed welcoming classroom located within a nurturing Catholic faith-based elementary school. St. Augustines has operated a Young Fives program for the past four years. St. Augustine principal Andra Zommers has extensive preschool experience having both taught and directed preschool programs for ten years prior to joining CSGK.

The preschool incorporates the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program as a central component of its curriculum. The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a religious program that focuses on the faith development of each individual child and his/her relationship to Christ. It is a wonderful complement to the preschool curriculum that emphasizes the physical social emotional and intellectual development of each student.

Our Preschool Director is Elizabeth Wurtz. Liz is a certified teacher and served as a long term substitute in our Preschool during the 2008-2009 school year. Liz completed the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd instructor training this past summer.
