Preschool Program

Preschool Program in Norwalk, CA
The St. Linus Preschool program was developed in order to meet the social and academic needs of children 3 years of age and above, and to prepare children for Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten. Our preschool curriculum is based upon the CA State Preschool Standards and the school adheres to all policies required for CA state-licensed preschools.
Our preschool also adheres to the philosophy, policies, and guidelines of St. Linus Catholic School, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, and the Roman Catholic Church. The governing body of the preschool consists of the preschool director, school principal, vice principal, and the parish pastor.
