School Reviews
5 9/30/2014
I have been very pleased with this school so far! My daughter is in the 3K program and has learned so much already. I would however like to know each day how my child's day has went and this school doesn't do that. They send a newsletter home once a week, but then again you still don't know how well your child has done, it only states what they've been learning.
