Parents' Comments
Parent #1
My son attends the full-day preschool. They offer both a full-day, 5-days-a-week program and also a half-day, 2/3-days-per-week program. My son loves this school and he has learned so much since he began attending less than a year ago. The school has very competent and caring Teachers and has a very HUGE inside & outside area. The Director and Teachers are extremely easy to work with. The class size are relatively small, so my son gets the personal attention that he would not otherwise receive in "full-capacity" pre-schools.
The answering machine, for some reason, only mentions the part-time program, but don't be discouraged if you're looking for full-time, as they have it!
Hours are 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m, M-F. Phone # is 847-359-5482

My daughter is loving this preschool. She is making friends and has learned all the letters of the alphabet! The abiltity to drop her off and pick her up at the door is great. She loves all the teachers and I'm getting to know the other parents, too.

Teachers are always willing to answer any questions I have. Other parents have been source of support. We're welcome to visit any time, though the school prefers to know in advance.

Discipline
| OVERALL RATING (5.0) |

| Parents at this school, on average, believe that conflicts between children:
are handled extraordinarily well in a way that not only gives me confidence in the safety of my child but also reassures me that my child (and his/her peers) are learning the early skills needed to socialize effectively with one another
