Ms Ash & Ms Priya in Jr K are so amazing and very kind. My preschooler really enjoys going to school. There’s a such a breadth of activities to engage them and prepare them for school. So grateful to them for all that they do.
Ms Savannah and Ms Amani have been the best introduction to daycare for my little one. They are so warm and so kind to the little kids and keep the parents in the loop. As someone who has experienced a few daycares I have to say this one is the best so far. Everyone seems to genuinely care for the kids and it’s not just for show when management is around.
The school administration & management is also top tier. Ms Gloria, Ms Juli, Ms Ruby and Ms Becky are such a wonderful group. They are also VERY organized.
Love it here.

In our preschool and pre-k classrooms, we add more school preparation and readiness by focusing on academic skills as well as interpersonal and collaboration skills.
