I would like to thank the staff at Starting Point. This was a good Summer. My nephew has learned a lot in the toddler room. He is playing by himself and we are hearing him say the days of the week and scripture. My sister brought the charts and pointer, he is mimicking the teacher. Great Job Ms. Linda and the director and staff.
