Why Preschool
Did you know that 90% of a child’s brain is developed by the time they are five years old? By enrolling your child in preschool, you are giving them a head start to succeed in school and in life.
In preschool, children will not only learn their ABCs and numbers, but they will make friends, learn to share, clean up after themselves, and discover what they like and don’t like. By enrolling your child in preschool, you are setting them up for success.
“My daughter LOVES being part of a classroom community. She loves seeing her classmates every morning. She loves seeing her teacher and learning the new activities of the day. Her favorite part of the day is when she gets to open her book to draw or make something. “
