Welcome to SJCS Preschool!
If you are interested in enrolling your child for preschool, please contact the school office with any questions 513-863-8758 or email aharding@sjcshamilton.org.
Please note: Our preschool program is designed for children to attend for two years. If a child is three by August 1st and potty trained the child will come 2 half days (Tuesday/Thursday). For the second year of our program, if your child is four by August 1st, a parent may choose either the 3 (MWF) or 5 full day option (M-F). Once children complete their second year, a Kindergarten recommendation will be based on the information from the Kindergarten assessment team and teacher recommendation as well as the age designation qualification.
