Centers of Learning

I enrolled my son when he was just 4 years old after having attended a toddler program at a private school that I felt was more like really expensive daycare with minimal supervision. Realizing kindergarten was also just around the corner, I needed to find a school that was honest in their purpose of caring and teaching children. I met with Mrs. Margo, the kindergarten teacher and the director of their Early Childhood Development Program to tour and talk about the school. This was my first and only child and was worried of all the unknowns but went home that day knowing this was the school. Mrs Margo calmed my anxieties making me feel warm, welcomed and safe.
Fast forward 9 years and a little sister, we’re still here. We, as a family have gained so much words cannot explain. COL has given us not only a quality Christian education but also accountability. They are nurturing and patient with the children being the center of what they do. My children are now in 8^th and 2^nd grade, doing well in their subjects and love it here. Being a small school, everyone from administration to the teachers and parents are like extended family, everyone looks out for one another and our kids. Even the older students at the school share with the mentoring of the younger ones by reading and playing with them. I feel fortunate my children are able to attend the same school at the same time considering their grade difference; a unique experience they’ll always remember. Thank you COL for everything. We have been truly blessed.

My daughter now attends this school. She started in their toddler program and is now a happy and successful preschooler. Every day she comes home with new skills, greater vocabulary and a broader understanding of the great, big world around her. I’m sure part of that would be automatic in any learning environment, but as any parent knows, kids are sponges. When my daughter comes home from a day at Centers of Learning, I find myself marveling that the things she soaks up at school — from teachers and students alike — are positive, character-​building, and insightful. I feel like she’s being truly, lovingly cared for and nurtured toward being the best little 3-​year year old she can be, while being prepared for a successful academic future.
