School Notes Overview:

Peppermint Stick continues to provide high quality education and care for young children. For more than 35 years, we have been helping children learn and grow in a nurturing and safe environment that makes learning fun.

Whenever possible, we intend to provide individualized care in a group setting. ...read more
