Director's Comments
We have an open house at the beginning of the school year for a one on one contact with teachers and parents. This event gives teachers the opportunities to talk about goals and outcomes that are expected for the year. In mid spring we have an open house to share what students have accomplished over the school year. In our Pre-K program parent teacher meetings are held for a complete review of kindergarten readiness.
We offer several extra curricular activities children can participate in during school hours for a nominal fee.
Wee Dance
Amazing Athletes
Gym Ventures
