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?


That families log on to NAEYC.org and go to the area for parents. This will give parents a great starting place for questions to ask during their visit.

Parents' Comments

Parent #1
I loved this school. It has a developmentally appropriate, positive atmosphere. My son is in his 2nd year of attendance and had a wonderful experience. The school provides wonderful music, drama, and sports programs outside of the standard curriculum. Also, the school provides structured extended day care that is very reasonably priced. I can't think of one negative thing to say about this school.
