About Us
Since first opening our doors November 7, 2005, Our Lady of the Assumption Preschool has provided children with a developmental early-childhood growth and learning program facilitated by the Archdiocese of Atlanta’s Office of Parish-Based Early Childhood Programs. Our program adheres to the excellent standards established by AdvancEd/Cognia, as well as the Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning (Bright from the Start).
The Preschool children’s days are filled with engaging learning experiences provided in an environment of love, nurture, safety, discovery and social interaction. Children touch, listen, experiment, discuss and interact as they discover the world around them through directed and free-choice play in the areas of social studies, math, science, emergent literacy, music, art and outdoor play. Small class sizes ensure the highest quality environment for all of our preschool children.
As a Catholic Preschool, each child will become aware of the many gifts God has provided to each of us.
Experiencing God’s love through family, nature and a sense of self, teaches our children respect for themselves and love of others and Jesus Christ. It is the belief of OLA Church and Preschool that we are in partnership with parents as our young children begin their education through social, developmental and spiritual growth.
Our Director: Mrs. Kathleen Jackowski
Kathleen Jackowski earned her bachelor's degree in elementary education from Saint Mary’s College, Notre Dame, IN and began her teaching career as a first grade teacher at Christ the King School in 1997. She spent six years teaching in the Fulton County school system and “retired” when she started her family in 2003.
From 2003 to 2013, Kathleen dedicated herself to raising her 3 boys; Will, Drew, and Kyle, with her husband Kris. She longed to return to teaching when the timing was right.Ms. Kathleen, as she is known to her students, has been an integral part of the Our Lady of the Assumption Preschool since joining the team. She is incredibly devoted to the Preschool program, the children, the staff, and the OLA community and eternally grateful to our previous director, Mrs. Debbie Kehoe, for her support, guidance, and mentorship.
