Early Childhood

Our school now has a Department of Education 3K program for children that will be 3 years of age by Dec. 2021. This program is free. We also have Pre-K for All which is the DOE program for 4-year-olds. Your child must be 4 by December of 2021. Both programs are open to NYC residents and proof of address must be given to register. No religion is taught in this program.

For our Long Island residents, we have a 3 /4-year-old hybrid program where both 3- and 4-year-old students learn in the same classroom. This hybrid class meets the needs of students of both ages through differentiated instruction. This program is not free, it is tuition based and students learn about our Catholic faith.

DOE 3K and Pre-K for All students receive free lunch from our catering service. A menu is provided to families in case students prefer to bring lunch, which is also an option.

OLS 3 / 4-year-old program does not provide free lunch. We do offer hot lunch items for purchase. Families receive choices a month ahead and can purchase lunch for their children or bring their own lunch from home.
