COVENANT PRESCHOOL

A FAMILY OF LEARNING

As Erie's longest established early learning program, Covenant Preschool has a tradition of excellence. We strive to meet each child's needs to help them in their transition from the home to school. Since 1949, we have developed a love of learning in our students.  

2 YEAR OLD PLAY SCHOOL

In "Play" School, children are introduced to the traditional classroom setting and routine.  They learn various aspects of school socialization including; taking turns, cleaning up, and following directions.  The children begin to develop a sense of independence, and learn to separate from caregivers.  The class meets Tuesdays/Thursdays or Monday/Wednesday with the option to add a third day on Friday from 9:00am to noon. Children must be two by November 1st. The class has three teachers and an enrollment limited to 12 children.  Children do not need to be potty trained to attend.
