My daughters have been going to the Village since 2018. My youngest is in vpk there now. When my oldest was there, I was diagnosed with cancer and was severely immunocompromised. My doctor advised me not to send her to school anymore but I took the risk, knowing she NEEDED the school and teachers she had grown to love. I’m so glad I took that risk. Her teachers gave her so much love and support that they quickly became like family to us. I had sent them to other daycares prior to the Village but none compared. We tried 3 other daycares in the area and they all had a big problem with teacher turnover. The other schools also had all of the “newest things” and “bells and whistles” but lacked in growing and developing the whole child. I am a teacher myself and I am not only blown away by the academic success both of my girls have experienced thanks to the Village, but I am also SO impressed with how they care and nurture the whole child. They are phenomenal at teaching social interactions, fostering friendships, dealing with emotions, teaching manners, and go the extra mile to make sure their students feel happy and secure. They are helping to raise polite, compassionate, empathetic, kind, AND smart little humans:) My third grader STILL talks about her preschool teacher from the Village! Both of my girls came home all the time excited about what they learned and did at school! They aren’t afraid to have these kids elbow deep in soil and science experiments and I love it! This is the best school I have ever encountered and I can’t say enough good things about it!
