We are parents who have had a child at Cadence Academy Preschool (previously Apple Tree Children’s Center) for 11 1/2 years. Each of our three children has had a different yet similar experience. I can honestly say there is nothing I feel should be changed. Every year, every day and with every child the teachers and directors show up with love to provide a safe and educational environment. There is no greater gift then having a safe and loving environment for your children. My children have all been well prepared for Kindergarten, both educationally and socially. I have always been secure in their safety. The teachers have helped us raise these little people during some very chaotic and challenging times. In 6 short weeks our youngest will start kindergarten and we will walk out of this center for the last time. It will be a day filled with bittersweet emotions. We will be eternally grateful to have found this gem when we were searching for childcare prior to our oldest son’s birth. Thank you to every teacher who has helped shape our children into the kind little souls they are blossoming to be!

You know your child has an amazing teacher when they want to become whatever it is they’re learning about at school. 👩🏼‍🏫👍🏻👍🏻 Michelle Flanegan, you are a wonderful, engaging educator. 👏🏻 Thank you for all that you are and all that you do. ❤️ Gabriel is completely and totally obsessed with learning about and talking about (constantly!) tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, you name it, and he now wants to be a meteorologist when he grows up. 😉
