St. Andrew's United Methodist Weekday School
Preschool in San Antonio, TX 78209
St. Andrews Weekday School was established in 1952 at the time of the founding of St. Andrews United Methodist Church. A desire for a Christian setting for social interaction for their young children prompted church families to seek a weekday program sponsored by the church. Classes for four and five year olds were then held in a house on Greenwich that the church used for its Sunday activities. The program was called St. Andrews Kindergarten.
Classes for three year olds were added in the 1960s. In the 1970s the name was changed to St. Andrews Weekday School and the day was extended into the early afternoon. The goals of the school were expanded to include not only social growth but also intellectual emotional physical and spiritual development.

Our philosophy of teaching is based on Developmentally Appropriate Practice. Knowing young children learn in small groups through concrete experiences and interaction with other children and adults the teachers will provide many materials and resources for exploration and discovery in developmentally appropriate ways. A supportive environment allows each child to develop and achieve to his/her fullest potential—intellectually physically socially emotionally and spiritually—under the guidance of qualified teachers.
