The inside of our classrooms have a very open-air feel, with appropriately sized furniture for different age groups. Even the sinks and bathrooms are built just for young children making your child feel comfortable and capable in his or her school surroundings.

Parents also like our location with easy access to I-90 and I-405; they can easily drop-off kids and conveniently get to/from our school to work or home.
