A Note From Your Principal

I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and a very happy new year. Thank you so much for your generosity last month. Our teachers, administrative team, and I truly appreciate all the thoughtfulness and care we received. We also thank you for your participation in our holiday giving initiative to the Salvation Army and One Warm Coat Foundation. We received over 100 lbs of awesome toys and also exceeded our donation goal and were able to donate 120 coats!


We celebrate diversity and inclusion all year and have many lessons planned this month to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. this month. We'll be reading books, making arts and crafts, discussing the importance of acceptance and belonging, and much more.

Family Referral Bonus

Do you know a colleague who has recently had a baby, a friend in need of care who just relocated to the area, or a family member who is seeking a new preschool for their child? When you refer a friend and they enroll, you’re eligible for a free week of tuition. Ask us for details!

Birthday Celebrations

We love to celebrate birthdays at school! While all of our teachers celebrate a little differently with birthday songs, dances, hats, stickers, etc. Parents are welcome to contribute to their child's special day. Here are some ideas:


  • Take your child shopping and let them pick out birthday plates/cups, that their friends will use during lunch.
  • Bring in birthday stickers or stamps for your child to distribute.
  • Ask your teacher if their child can bring in their favorite toy to show their friends.
  • Ask your teacher if the class can have a PJ day or wear your child's favorite color.
