St. Martin de Porres Catholic School

In the Catholic Diocese of Fort Worth, all members of society are valued, especially our children. St. Martin de Porres Catholic School nurtures the spiritual, intellectual, physical, and social growth of each child with a comprehensive curriculum accredited by the Texas Catholic Conference Education Department and recognized by the State of Texas.

Pre-Kindergarten

The pre-kindergarten environment fosters love of God, of self, and of others, and provides opportunities for children to contribute to their home, school, and church communities. The program provides hands-on learning based on the knowledge of how and when a child learns and develops. Within this atmosphere, the child grows as a unique person in God’s world.
