The classroom environment is inviting! The rooms are well lit with natural light and no harsh ceiling and lamp lights! A variety of framed art is displayed along with the children's art creations! The children were able to bring a plant, to care for, in the classroom. Miss Michele welcomes the children at the door each morning. I would definitely recommend this program.
