Description: In September 1979, surrounded by woods and dirt roads, Francesca Gardner "Ms. Frankie" as she is known decided to pursue her lifelong dream and open a preschool that would be located at her childhood home. Her first enrollment consisted of six children. The school has blossomed. Now licensed for one hundred and thirty nine children. 2002 her son Samuel Simpson and wife Sherri decided to keep the business in the family. Between the three of them, they have created a center to be very proud of.
We strive to give our best to each child and parent. This requires everyone employed to be a nurturing loving care giver, and educator.
As fast as the world changes, we want the children of Storybook Ranch to have a head start and be prepared for their years to come. We cannot do this alone. Parent involvement and open communication is essential. We teach our children we are their school family and everyone is taught to respects one another. We encourage each child to be involved in classroom activities. We invite parents to visit the classroom and encourage them to participate in the curriculum. Parents are welcome to bring projects to express their heritage. We feel it is important that children not only receive a great education, but also have time to be kids.
We want to assure parents that their children are safe. Each building has a coded entry pad. Only parents and staff of Storybook Ranch have the code. We have security cameras in each room. This allows the directors availability to watch the rooms at any given time. Parents may come to the center and view their child by appointment.

My wife and I have had many years experience with Storybook Ranch Preschool, as we have enrolled both of our children there. Had we had a third, fourth, or fifth child, they would have attended also. The owner of Storybook Ranch and her family who helps her run the school are EXCELLENT educators and, more importantly, GENUINELY care for each and every student there. As working parents, my wife and I can drop our children off everyday with confidence that they're being left in a SAFE and CARING environment. And it warms our hearts to pick them up at the end of the day and hear about their day ... things they learned, fun they had.
It saddens me to see uninformed people voicing their negativive opinion about Storybook Ranch on this platform. Storybook Ranch and the people who work there care for our children everyday as if they were their own and do not deserve that kind of treatment. So if you're looking to send your own children there, please do not let an ignorant comment on the internet sway you away. Go to the school, meet the employees and see for yourself why my wife and I chose Storybook.
