 Our Mission

The mission of our preschool is to provide each child with vast opportunities through a classical education approach, which allows the children to explore and learn. Preschoolers visit the school library, computer lab, and Divine Artworks Center to engage in a variety of ways. They also participate in physical education classes, as well as field trips and educational assemblies. We provide a safe and secure environment where respect for self and others is emphasized. At Christ the Divine Teacher, we strive to:


  • Help our children feel secure in making the transition from home to school

  • Inspire a love for learning in preparation for kindergarten

  • Foster the natural curiosity that is innate in every child

  • Instill in children a love of God and appreciation for His gifts


 Our Staff

Our caring and qualified teachers motivate the children to develop self-expression, auditory listening skills and motor skills within a nurturing environment full of energy, imagination, music, dance and creative play.

My heart belongs to my preschoolers."

Kimberly Marsh has taught preschool throughout her entire 33-year teaching career. She received her Bachelor of Arts in English from Seton Hill University, and earned a teaching certificate in early childhood education. While Kim is certified to teach up to third grade, she professes her devotion to teaching preschool: "I'm qualified to teach pre-k to grade three, but I have to confess — my heart belongs to my preschoolers."

I feel the need to do what I love, and that is being in the classroom."
Karen Stewart graduated from Seton Hill University with a degree in psychology and an early childhood and elementary education certificate. After raising her two sons, Karen returned to the classroom to achieve her teaching goals: "My goal is to teach young children in a caring and nurturing setting and to help them grow to be the best they can. It is amazing to see what their imaginations can do. I am honored to be a part of molding them into the beautiful persons they will become!"
