Parents' Comments

Parent #1
I would like to have more feedback from the teacher about how my child is doing in school (which has been pretty much none to this point). Also, there is only one small bathroom which is shared by all the kids except for the 2 year olds. It is usually wet all over the counter and generally not very clean. A couple of times I've noticed there are no paper towels available in the restroom also. This is important during cold/flu season which is this time of year. On the positive side, the teachers are all very nice and seem to have a genuine interest in the children.

Parent #2
Great teachers - very sweet and patient; emphasis on social skills and play with some academic and art mixed in; not your typical "suburban" preschool... very earthy and organic feeling. 30 year history and great longevity of the teaching staff. We love this school!

Parent #3
The teachers are very personable and really seem to connect with the children.

Parent #4
This school provides a caring and safe environment. There are not many students per class so it is small which my son loves. It is perfect for his age and we look forward to the next several years at Leucadia Children's School.

Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
