My grandson went here from infancy and was loved and nurtured and well prepared for "big school". This school has been there for 25 years so they must be doing something right!

My oldest daughter who is now in 3rd grade went here from age 2 1/2 through Pre-K. She was well prepared for Kindergarten. We loved all of the teachers! Even though it is farther than some of the other preschools from my house, I send my youngest daughter there now. She has been there since she was 2 1/2 and is now in Pre-K. It's amazing how much she has learned and now has the confidence to move on the Kindergarten in the fall.
