St. John's Preschool

Learning and Growing in a Safe Secure Environment

Now Enrolling!

Updated COVID-19 Guidance

for the 2022-23 School Year

Dear St. John Preschool Families,

The health and safety of our students and staff is our top priority. Therefore; we will be following the guidelines associated with the Department of Health regarding COVID-19. Washington state updated its COVID-19 school and child care guidance on August 5, 2022, for the 2022-23 school year. Following these safety measures reduces the spread of COVID-19.

Students and staff who show symptoms of COVID-19 are required to stay home. They should get tested for COVID-19. Home test are acceptable.

Students and staff who test positive for COVID-19 are required to isolate at home for 5 days. If symptoms improve and they have had no fever for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications, student and staff can come back to school.

Students or staff returning from 5 days of isolation should wear a well-fitted mask from days 6 to 10.

Students who test positive after 5 days of isolation must isolate for the full 10 days.

We look forward to welcoming back staff and students this school year and creating a safe and healthy space for children to learn.

About St John's Preschool

Our preschool was established in downtown Kirkland in 1974 and has been in operation ever since. Our main goal is to make preschool a “fun” experience for the children. It is hoped that they will remember school as a fun and positive place to be. While having fun your child will learn many things, although we do not consider ourselves an “academic” preschool. We try not to take ourselves too seriously except when it comes to providing a safe secure environment for your little ones. We feel we take care of the whole family including parents and siblings not just our students.

As a ministry of St. John Episcopal Church we are a Christian preschool but accept children regardless of faith background.

Your child will learn many things while they are with us. We focus on the skills that they will need to be successful in Kindergarten – social and classroom skills. In everyday lessons (which revolve around themes) they will be exposed to letters, numbers, shapes, colors, patterns and sequencing. They will learn to take turns, sit on circle, complete a task, play with friends, and communication skills. Our main goal is to have your child feel safe and cared for while they are away from you. We want school to be “fun” for them so that when they are 18 they’ll, hopefully, remember that school is a fun place to be.
