Vision Statement
Preschool years are an important foundation for later development. Holy Cross Preschool uses our God given resources to provide children the opportunities to reach their fullest potential. We are dedicated to introducing children to the values and principles based on Christian living that reflect the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America theology.
Facilities
Holy Cross Preschool is a non-profit preschool, a ministry of Holy Cross Lutheran Church, ELCA. Holy Cross Preschool is a state licensed facility that offers: small class sizes, two classrooms, an outdoor fenced in play yard, a large gym, music lessons and chapel time. We meet health and safety standards that ensure your child will be safe.
Staff
With more that 32 years combined experience at Holy Cross, our staff of three teachers and one administrator/director exceeds Wisconsin state requirements. The Holy Cross church staff become familiar faces to the children through chapel time and ongoing visits during the school year.

Cognitive - Pre-math, science, reading and language skills.
Art - Creative expression focusing on the process rather than the project, including dramatic play.
Fine Motor Skills - Puzzles, small manipulative toys, blocks and drawing.
Gross Motor Skills - Movement games, dance and outdoor play.
Sensory - Physical exploration of materials like play dough, sand, paint and water.
Field Trips - Offered to enrich a child’s school experience.
Music - Exploration of music guided by the church music staff.
