A Winner of a Preschool

My oldest son started with Central at age 2 and was there until he started kindergarten at age 5 1/2. A few months later, my younger son started just after age 2 and is currently enrolled. My husband and I feel so fortunate to have found Central Nursery School. The preschool has been in business for 35+ years and has experienced, knowledgeable, empathetic and friendly teachers, each of whom has been with the preschool long-term. These ladies are the BEST out there (in my humble opinion!) They treat the kids (and parents) with respect, you will never hear them yelling, speaking harshly or putting down your child. It is a COMPLETELY positive environment. The minute you step inside the gate of Central, the happiness of the children exudes all around. Central provides a "home-like" atmosphere for the kids, which I think helps them adjust quickly and really WANT to spend their days here.



The children are separated into groups by age (Papooses, Braves and then Chiefs) and are given an age-appropriate curriculum between art projects, counting projects, learning and recognizing letters, spelling their names, story time and singing songs. We love when our little guy comes home singing us the songs he's learned in the week! They get plenty of outside play time and there are two playgrounds that are structured for age appropriateness. Everyone naps (or has quiet time) for 2 hours in the early afternoon. Snacks and drinks are provided, but you do bring your own lunch (which works great for us since we have a semi-picky eater and we can tailor his lunch to what we know he will eat).



If you are considering a preschool, you definitely want to put Central Nursery School at the top of your list of schools to visit.
