St. Andrew’s Day School was established in September of 1964. The school is a non-profit organization housed in St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Beaumont, Texas. The Day School is self-sustaining but under the umbrella of the church. All tuition and other fees are used to provide staff salaries, equipment and supplies.

 

St. Andrew’s Day School is fully licensed by the State of Texas. Our teacher to child ratio is kept low, well below the minimum standards for child care.

 

We have classes five days a week, ten months a year. The Beaumont Independent School District schedule is followed both for holidays and school days cancelled due to weather conditions. 

 

St. Andrew’s Day School strives to provide each student a sense of worthiness through play and learning in a Christian environment. The day school’s specialized program gives children ages 12 months through Pre-K 4-year-olds varied opportunities designed to develop the whole child. The St. Andrew’s Day School Staff focuses on learning through child-directed play experiences and proven curriculum. The director, staff, and board believe that a balance of preschool learning activities and play enhances growth and development in all areas: physically, socially, emotionally, creatively, and intellectually.  This is achieved in a safe and loving, faith-based environment with a staff who is dedicated to enriching children’s lives.

 

The purpose of St. Andrew’s Day School is to help your child learn in a happy, Christian atmosphere, and to grow in these ways:

  • Emotionally – to learn to manage tension and hostility in an acceptable manner and feel accepted by his teachers and peers.
  • Socially – to learn to be thoughtful and to adjust to the group.
  • Cognitively – by stimulating curiosity and imagination, encouraging thinking and problem solving, and developing language skills at the child’s own rate of speed.
  • Physically – acquiring gross motor coordination through the use of proper play equipment, honing fine motor skills through developmentally appropriate activities.
  • Spiritually– the religious training we provide is informal and non-sectarian.  Through the teachers attitudes and the atmosphere established in the classroom, the child appreciates God’s world and learns to identify himself as part of God’s people.
