We are elated with the entire Appleview Early Learning Center and Preschool community. The director, Miss Amanda and ALL the staff members are very nurturing, kind-hearted, dedicated, hard-working, knowledgeable people. My husband and I have seen tremendous growth and happiness with our 4 year old daughter. She LOVES Appleview and is proud of her accomplishments. I have recommended and will continue to recommend Appleview to parents/ friends in the neighborhood. Thank you Appleview! Keep up the good work!
