Loved this place. We were warmly greeted daily and I found the staff to be very accessible. They would answer all my questions and returns my calls quickly. The place is very clean and spacious. My granddaughter loved her teachers and learned a lot. I was fortunate to get my granddaughter enrolled. There place gets filled up quickly.
