The Mary Elizabeth Center and Preschool will be committed to providing young children love, care and respect as well as a focus on sustainability and environmental issues.  We will recycle, compost and incorporate an organic vegetable garden into our preschool.  The "big picture" of the school year will focus on:  Learning how to make and keep friends, living a good healthy life, being responsible, giving and loving.

Our Goals

1.  Maintain an atmosphere of respect and peacefulness

2.  Provide a preschool that has the feel of entertainment but inspires activities which are motivated by serious educational purpose

3.  Build quality relationships among members of the community

4.  Build confident, connected and actively involved children

5.  Help children to become more aware of the world and teach them about taking care of the earth

6.  Foster independence

7.  Find connections to others and find oneself

We are located in the village of Jeffersonville, 208 Main Street next to the Varnum Library (see contact information for google map).
