Our History
In response to the request of parents who wanted a weekday preschool for their children and the desire of the Dean and Chapter to more fully utilize the Cathedral of St. Philip’s classroom space, a weekday playgroup was established in 1970 by mothers who volunteered to be teachers. The Cathedral Playgroup grew into what is now the Cathedral Preschool - a professionally staffed, highly regarded Atlanta preschool with a waiting list of applicants. The Preschool is accredited by AdvancEd/SACS.
Since its inception, the Cathedral Preschool has had a rewarding, mutually beneficial relationship with the Cathedral of St. Philip. However, the Cathedral Preschool is a separately incorporated parochial entity, and it has its own by-laws and Board of Directors, operates independently, and makes all of its own admissions and operations decisions.
