School Reviews

I generally feel this school is for my daughter I love that school is a family. It`s small enough that everybody knows each other a big enough that my daughter can grow and find herself. She has learned so much pre-K3 and pick four were and are a blessing love the fact that they made Spanish a priority. I think it is so important for our kids to learn a second language. I`ve noticed that the teachers are very hands-on, and the principal is doing the very best she can. I am excited for my daughter and what she`s got to learn they`re not just about schooling but also life and family and love and God.
