Believe it or not, preschool registration season is here! There are LOTS of local preschool options, so for your reference, I’ve put together a list of schools and programs in St. Michael-Albertville and the surrounding area. Most schools begin enrollment in January for the following fall. Check with any schools you’re interested in to find out when they open, as some of the more popular programs fill up quickly!
Our list is broken down into two basic categories—preschools that meet in/are associated with churches, and those that are not. If you are specifically looking for one or the other, you may use these links to jump to that part of the list: Traditional Preschools Church Preschools (schools are sorted alphabetically)
The Fall 2022 Community Education brochure is set to hit mailboxes later this week, but eager moms and dads can get a SNEAK PEEK at the ECFE schedule now!
STMA’s Early Childhood Family Education classes are a great way to give your littlest learners (ages 0–5) a jump start on their education, as well as an opportunity to get to know other local families with kids at the same age and stage as your own.

With so many new families moving into St. Michael-Albertville on a regular basis, there is always a need for high-quality childcare.
So when I heard that there was a Goddard School location being built in Albertville, I got excited because I know that the Goddard name is synonymous with high-quality early education.
Registration for the fall and winter sessions of ECFE* opens at 12am on Thursday, August 23—but for all you die-hards out there, you know that really means staying up TONIGHT until midnight. 😉
I noticed so many new things in the Community Ed Brochure this year that I made sure to catch some time with Super-Jane (a.k.a. Coordinator for ECFE and Bright Beginnings Preschool) just to talk about what all was new and different.
If you have a young dance-lover in your house, this summer may be a great time to check out the local dance studios and find out which one is right for your family.
A number of studios in the area are offering free sample classes, open houses, and other special events that let you and your little one step inside and give dance a try before deciding whether to commit to a full season.
Some of the classes and events begin as early as next week, so take a look at the offerings below and make sure your little dancer doesn’t miss his or her chance!
