My son has attended this preschool there for 2 years. The teachers are hands on and offer a rich curriculum. The trikes were a hit at recess time and the Reeves Hall was a great place to play in times of bad weather. I strongly recommend! (and the prices are very competitive)
I can't say enough about this school. The staff are great with the children and have so much experience. They do alot of fun activites during the year that the kids love. You truly feel like your part of the family there.
