This school offers a program which does a good job of incorporating religion into the curriculum. They also have a great music teacher and recently this year have started Spanish. Overall the learning experience is a postive one. However, the school's administration does not always run the school in a postive way. For instance last year my daughters class of 3 year olds were assessed in one day. The teacher pulled each kid out individually and asked them some questions...they used these one day assessments for the next years placement. I question why three year olds are put in a test situation rather then being assessed throughout the year. The answer given was it was a hard year in that classroom b/c of some special needs students, so the teacher was unable to assess the kids properly. I thought this was an outrage to hear at the end of a school year.

Strengths: Religious Education, Great School Director.
Parent #4
This is a church-based preschool and the program includes chapel time and Bible lessons. I have been very impressed with the Bible lessons -- they are learning a lot more about Biblical figures than I thought they would. Chapel time is handled very appropriately for their age group.
Parent #5
Strengths - Loving environment, small school. Weakness - More intense learning and exposure to new things.
Parent #6
I love the school. The teachers are excellent, kids are well-behaved, and the curriculum is challenging but fun. I would like to see the school get some more outdoor play equipment, but I believe that's in the works.
