Director's Comments
Question to director: Do you have any additional thoughts on what parents should consider when looking at your school? Is there any advice that you would like to provide to prospective parents?
We suggest that parents observe the school and ask the teachers any questions they may have. We have very limited openings and cannot guarantee spots to all applicants.
Parents' Comments
Parent #1
I cannot say more positive things about this school. My child does not have to be in preschool because I am a stay at home mom, but I loved this school so much that I enrolled her at age 2. I have never regretted it. She loves going to school each and every day and we will sorely miss Bayside after kindergarten.
Parent #2
Weakness - hours of operations. for pre-school, 9:15 to 11:45. not suitable for working parents.
