Why choose St. Andrew Christian Preschool?
We plant the seeds for life-long learning by building a safe and supportive community following the example of Jesus. We encourage exploration, enthusiasm and risk-taking to foster self-management and problem-solving skills. We offer predictable routines with a flexible curriculum to allow children opportunities for self-paced discovery and growth.
We are recognized by Evergreen Public Schools as an Evergreen Early Learning Partner. Our students go on to attend elementary schools in Battle Ground, Camas, Evergreen, Hockinson, and Vancouver school districts. We are blessed to have a location that is so convenient for families in Clark County.

What our current parents are saying:
- "St. Andrews provides the perfect start to school. As a teacher, I appreciate the developmentally appropriate approach to early learning. As a parent, I love the nurturing, caring, child-friendly environment. St. Andrew's is a fabulous preschool!"
- "St. Andrew has gone the extra mile to accommodate the needs of all the children making their experience a positive and successful one. Thank you so much for all your guidance - it has made such a difference!"
- "I love St. Andrews because I feel it is a wonderful balance between academic and creative progression for each age. I highly recommend St. Andrews. It really prepared my kids both socially and academically."
- "Everyone makes our family feel welcome. This is a very family friendly, child-centered preschool and we are happy to be a part of it!"
Purpose
Our program was started in 1984 by a group of professionals wanting to create a Preschool of Excellence. A preschool committed to the spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional and social growth of young children. We have gone on to earn a reputation for being one of the best in Clark County.
Our preschool is a non-profit, non-denominational Christian organization with a staff of warm and experienced professionals dedicated to Early Childhood Education.
