Parents' Comments

Parent #1
The staff varies from year to year. I love the facilities. Students have a lot of room to be active yet contained.

Parent #2
I love this school. I cannot stress how confident I am when I leave my son there even on those mornings where he is tired or crabby?he always comes home happy. His day is fun and if there is an issue on the yard or in the room with other kids, the teachers are quick to point it out to me when I pick him up and to let me know what happened and how it was resolved. I consider myself a picky parent when it comes to schools?I am a former elementary school teacher!

Parent #3
Preschool weakness is not having a curriculum that will help prepare them for kindergarten (such as writing, reading, and math). Preschool strength is cleanliness, structured, and good teacher-to-children ratio and relationship.

Parent #4
This school has been a wonderful experience for my children. My oldest had severe separation anxiety that lasted off and on throughout her preschool experience, yet the staff dealt with it professionally and never gave up on her. Consequently, her kindergarten and first grade years have been fabulous, as she had such a great foundation from which to expand upon. The staff is EXCELLENT, and my son who is attending the pre-K program is receiving an outstanding education.
