I discovered Rise and Shine in 2022 for my 4th child and really fell in love with the school.In a world where schools are pushing so much technology and screens, teacher Jeannie's old school approach is exactly what I was looking for. She is very hands on and is an amazing teacher.They are allowed to be children and explore the world around them. They do gardening, play in the mud, and many outdoor activities where they can learn through play.The children are taught values: how to be kind and respectful, how to be a good friend and of course academics. The smaller class size means that your child will get better quality of education versus a class of 29 in public school.After my 4th child graduated kindergarten, it was a no brainer for me to enroll my 5th child at Rise and Shine.Nyles (my 5th) has learned and grown so much since starting kindergarten! He developed love for God and enjoys praying and reading his bible before going to bed.Don't be fooled though, the academic portion of the kindergarten class is really challenging and at the end of the day your child will surprise you with what he's learned in class.We really love Teacher Jeannie and Rise and Shine. I have nothing but praise and gratitude for them. Even if you have Teacher Jeannie as your teacher, you will feel that the school has a family atmosphere. Every one knows your child by name and truly cares.My only regret is not discovering them sooner with my 3 older children and I still pray that they open up elementary classes! That would be the dream!
