Parents' Comments

Parent #1
JWELC follows the State of Ohio's recommendations for learning. My children were more than prepared to attend Kindergarten after attending school at JWELC. A complete written report of my child's progress was given to me at a parent teacher conference at the end of the school year.

Parent #2
Just the right amount of play time and structure from the teacher. There are activities to do as a class such as jobs at the beginning of class and talking about what they will be doing that day. The children know what is expected of them and are proud of themselves as they learn.
