Just visited and if you have a child that is 2 years old or older, they potty train if needed and are considered as one of the best schools in the Long Beach area. This is one of the better preschools in the area. The staff are all well educated, and each classroom follow a consistent and progressive teaching process that includes music, art, creative play and phonics, which of course helps all the children to enjoy reading and creative play.

St. Paul's is where God's eternal, healing and life-giving Word is rightly preached, and God's free gifts, those that build trust in Christ's promises and provide forgiveness of sins, via His physical means of delivery (water baptism, bread-and-wine communion, and His spoken words of forgiveness) are rightly delivered. Did you know that Jesus of Nazareth regularly dined with some really awful, notorious people-- the most despised of His day (Luke 15:2)? (In middle-Eastern culture, you only dined with those who were in your social circle.) He purposely sought them out, and He still does today

St. Paul's Preschool is the best in town! Both my son's attended the preschool as well as my niece and nephew. We put our 100% trust and faith in the kind and caring staff to take wonderful care of our children everyday. Each member of the staff is dedicated to providing the children with the tools they need to be steps ahead of others when the graduate to kindergarten. I cannot imagine a better place to send my children or my family for preschool.
