It is now April 2025, of our second year open and enrollment for the fall is almost full. Wow. God has been so faithful and kind to us during this entire endeavor. I am happy to report that I did things much better this year, than the last, and I am working to make next fall our best year yet! As teachers, we are always learning, always pivoting to meet the needs and challenges of children. The age doesn’t matter because all children, even into adulthood, need positive and encouraging people to mold them into the best version of who God intends them to be. That responsibility with preschoolers is one that I cherish every day. What amazing and beautiful little creatures these children are! The love that they share with me is unconditional. My days are not perfect, but they forgive me. My spirit isn’t always high, so they are trying even harder to make me smile. My teaching experience has been from elementary to middle school. At this time in my life, preschoolers are my favorite little people to be with. Just love, laughter, learning, and repeat.
Thank you, God, every day, for the blessings and joy that I receive from these children. Please give me the stamina, energy, grace, and wisdom to do this for as long as You need me to. Amen.
It is now the end of March of our first school year 2023-2024. It has gone by so quickly! I remember working two long years, 24-7, to get the school up and running and here we are. We are not a daycare and do not stay open all year, all hours. We are a preschool welcoming children 3.5-5 years old, fully potty trained, that still need to play, socialize, discover, grow, and bloom before kindergarten. The Homestead Preschool follows the MVISD calendar for the start of school, the holidays in between, and the end of the school year in May.
August 2023 - They say good things come to those who wait…well, the school building arrived here in Castroville over a year ago! We’ve made it over every hurdle so far and have the finished school in our sights! We cannot wait to be filled with beautiful preschoolers! Our enrollment is a comfortable class size allowing for stronger relationship building, and a higher-quality learning environment. We will be opening in early September and enrollment is happening now! The ages of registering children are 3.5-5 years old. Please come by, call, email, or text, to get answers to all of your questions and additional information. Thank you for visiting The Homestead Preschool, LLC!
