Parents' Comments
Parent #1
This school is very structured and more academic than play oriented. That being said, it is a really fun and nurturing enviroment. HPBS is very 'old school' and it reminded me of my preschool when I was growing up. It also was great about giving the kids opportunities to perform (there is a monthly Sing Song where every class performs). Kids also get to raise the flag themselves once a year and they get to speak in front of the whole school when it is their birthday. This really helps boost confidence and gives practice in public speaking.
