Music



SSCH Preschool offers music classes twice a week.

Tuesdays with Ms. Vickie! Ms. Vickie Glod is a parishioner here at SSCH who donates her time to the children to teach them music in English and Greek. Ms. Vickie also prepares the children for our Christmas and graduation concerts.






Fridays with Ms. Sophia! Sophia Hardesty is both a parishioner of SSCH, as well as a mother of a 4s student at our preschool. Sophia owns Naptown Sings and Plays, and she provides a 30-minute music immersion class once a week. Get ready for your child to be absorbed in everything music - rhythm, beats, harmony, music & movement, and genres from around the world.


Greek Language & Culture

Each week, children will engage in a 30-minute class in Greek language, culture, and literature. Research tells us that learning a second language has tremendous effects on our brains!

Feeds Brains
Learning a second language can boost problem-solving, critical-thinking, and listening skills.

Boosts Academic Achievement
The cognitive benefits of learning a language include improved reading, writing, and math skills.

Nurtures Curiosity, Cultural Sensitivity, Empathy, and Tolerance
The experience of learning a language introduces children to the world in new and inclusive ways.

Visiting Reader Program





SSCH has many different readers who participate in our Visiting Reader Program. Anne Arundel County Public Library (AACPL) visits our school twice a year to present its preschool story time to our students. When AACPL is not here, you, our wonderful parents and family members, will have the opportunity to come and read to our classes.
