My son went to Kensington School St. Charles, IL. He went throught the kindergarten program there. The class size and Mrs. Smith, and the curriculum were outstanding. My son who enterd public shool was recently tested for the magnet school the district offers and was accepted. Words can not express the outstanding job Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Heth and Mrs. Houghland did with him from Junior Kindergarten, to Transitional Kindergarten and then Kindergarten. Highly recommend the school. It was a great start for my son . From a Very Proud Parent
