Great preschool. Kids are happy. Teachers are caring and affectionate. Love the classrooms and curriculum focused on play based learning. This is the only school that has more playtime and interactive time in the surrounding area. We tried an older, expensive school first and the teachers there turned out to be mean. Very glad we found this school. It is really serving the community.
