School Reviews

Our daughter has been at EGMS since she was an infant. We loved Mrs. Samantha when she was in the infant program. The daily updates and emails were great and allowed us to know what happened each step of the day. The toddler classroom led by Mrs. Renata was a great experience. Our daughter loved the art projects she planned each week and really enjoyed the different baking activities they did. She is currently in Mrs. Chitra's class and is learning so much. The school is clean and the owner is always there. He and his wife address any questions or concerns we have had during our time at EGMS. We couldn't recommend this school more.
