THE PRE- CHOGL Looking at a group of pre- school children you meet their in- tent faces and their beaming smiles. They are awed by all they observe. That is why their teach- ers must guide them gently, lay- ing the foundation for their fu- ture education. They are taught the fundamentals, such as the alphabet, colors, and numbers. All of this is so essential for the child to progress in his learning. It must be done well, for the child is impressed by his teacher in his younger years. These years are the groundwork of his adjusting to society. His first friends are made, some of whom will last for years. The things he learns and friends he makes form his personality which will follow him through his life. The parents Hrst mold his mind and then entrust his care to his teachers, who become his sec- ond parents. At The Summit the child is introduced to God through Bible stories and simple prayers, which are the basis for his later in- struction for the reception of the Sacraments. The way having been prepared by the parents and teachers, the child must learn to journey by himself up the moun- tain of life to adulthood and-to God. 91
