"It was amazing to see my son not only learn to read, but learn to read out loud with confidence over his Kindergarten year with Mrs. Patterson. A year later, he's still reading avidly thanks to her teaching."
“The teachers in Early Childhood make learning fun! In Pre-K, my son was memorizing and reciting nursery rhymes to his class. In Kindergarten, he is learning to not only read, but also spell out words due to the Carden curriculum. The growth in his confidence and self-discipline has been amazing to witness. This isn’t a school; it’s a second home for my children.”
