At Everest Academy, we believe that a strong foundation in faith, character, and academics begins in the earliest years of a child’s life. Our Preschool Program is more than just a place for learning letters and numbers—it’s a nurturing environment where little hearts are formed in the love of God, and young minds are guided to grow in wonder and truth.
Faith at the Center
In our Catholic preschool, children are introduced to the beauty of the Catholic faith in age-appropriate, joyful ways. They learn simple prayers, participate in daily blessings, celebrate feast days, and discover that Jesus is their closest friend. Faith is woven into every part of the day—from stories and songs to the way we treat one another with kindness and respect.
Our goal is not only to prepare children academically, but to help them begin a lifelong relationship with Christ.
Learning Through Love and Play
Our preschool program is designed to foster a love of learning. Through a blend of structured activities and creative play, children develop foundational skills in literacy, math, science, and fine motor development. Lessons are guided by caring and experienced teachers who create a safe, joyful, and stimulating classroom environment.
We emphasize hands-on learning and exploration, encouraging curiosity while building confidence and independence.
Forming the Whole Child
At Everest Academy, we take a whole-child approach—nurturing not only the mind and spirit, but also character and virtue. Preschoolers are gently taught the importance of patience, sharing, listening, and caring for others. Through simple acts of kindness and routine, children begin to understand their value as children of God and their role in a loving community.
A Partnership with Parents
We view parents as the primary educators of their children and work in partnership to support each child’s growth. Frequent communication, family events, and opportunities for parent involvement help create a strong and supportive school community.
A Bright Beginning
The preschool years at Everest are just the beginning of a rich, faith-filled academic journey. Our students leave preschool not only ready for kindergarten, but with hearts that are eager to love, serve, and learn.
If you’re looking for a place where your child will be known, loved, and inspired—both spiritually and academically—consider Everest Academy in Lemont. We still have a few openings for the 2025–2026 school year. Come see what makes Everest a special place to begin a lifelong love of learning and faith.
