School Reviews

5 12/2/2022

"As a working mother of three, dropping off the children with a nanny or daycare was always heart-wrenching. In stark contrast to this were the mornings I took my children to Ascension. They could not wait to get out of the car to be greeted by one of the smiling teachers and head into their class. Knowing their days would be filled with enriching lessons, fun times with friends and loving teachers alleviated any sadness I felt in leaving them. For me, Ascension was an invaluable extension of my village. I do not know what I would have done without this wonderful place."
