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 EvangelicalLutheranChurch in America theology.

 

 

With 23 years combined experience at Holy Cross, Our staff of three teachers and one 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.
