My daughter has been going since she was 2 1/2. I love, love, love this school. My daughter loves all her teachers. They treat each child like it is there own. The classes are small and there is a lot of individual attention given to each child. I'm sad my daughter is leaving for kindergarden. They offer full and half days. The full day children take a nap after lunch. My daughter also participates in a dance program they run thru the school. Very cute...they do 2 dance recital for the year.
