This school is AMAZING! Miss Jiyoung Kim and Miss Manisha are WONDERFUL teachers! I would not trust anybody else to guide and mentor my children. This is a place where you will find a strong partner in your child's educational and developmental journey. They focus on the whole person- social , emotional and educational growth. They want to encourage creativity and a sense of wonder about their world. You must see it for yourselves. Cannot say ENOUGH GREAT THINGS about this school, the teachers, the staff and the families that attend there!!! Such a great community!
