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 ask that parents consider a program like ours that not only facilitates play-based activities in a developmentally appropriate way, but also is nurturing, loving, and enjoyable.

Parents' Comments

Parent #1
teachers are aware of conflicts but don't always jump right in - wait to see how kids handle it and become involved if necessary - allow kids to work out their problems together without intervention unless intervention becomes necessary. I like this approach.

Parent #2
The staff is very loving and nurturing. They encourage the children to learn through play and to interact with others in a kind and thoughtful way.

Parent #3
Teachers are tremendous. Facility is less so but sufficient.

Parent #4
Resurrection's director and teachers are so caring and are extremely knowledgable about teaching socialization through positive methods. We continually learn from them.

Parent #5
This is a fantastic school if you believe in the play-based philosophy. It is a warm, nurturing, and safe environment that gives the children a variety of choices in a free environment. Then, they have time that is a structured activity. For me, that is all a 4 year old requires.

Parent #6
Program Director is fabulous.
