Director's Comments
Question to director: Do you have any additional thoughts on what parents should consider when looking at your school? Is there any advice that you would like to provide to prospective parents?
Our curriculum is teacher guided and child guided. Your child will learn from a credentialed master teacher. We have a music director and a dance director who will teach your child through the Arts. We provide two snacks and a hot lunch. All this is included in the tuition. Your childs education is in our hands, and we are good at what we do. Come tour our facility.
Parents' Comments
Parent #1
I am THRILLED to have found Johnson Preschool Performing Arts Academy (JPPAA) & to have my son going there! He really looks forward to going to school & now calls it his "Singing School," (probably because, in part, they use professional musicians & dancers as teachers.) My son learned so much in 1 ½ weeks: spelling & writing his name, knows more songs (& tries to “remake” them on his guitar), recognizes more words, has reinforced his counting skills, finds letters on the computer keyboard & more. Everybody at JPPAA cares about the kids (their success & their futures), & cares about the parents. Plus, they show nothing but love there. It's apparent that JPPAA has studied, learned & incorporated advanced teaching/learning techniques. I feel like I have a strong partner in my Little Guy's education (all for about the same price or lower of other schools). The passion & dedication of the director, main teacher, & all of the teachers & staff is fantastic.
