Parent Reviews
I have had both of my children attend Garden Path School, each beginning at around 2 years old. One currently attends, and the other has "graduated" to kindergarten. I could not have asked for a better experience for our family. Angela is incredibly gifted at meeting each child's specific needs, and working with the child as well as the family to ensure that the children are in a safe and enriching environment. My children have flourished academically, socially and emotionally. The curriculum is creative and flexible, with a good leaning towards STEM and problem solving. One of the things that I love most about GP is that children of all ages are in the same classroom, creating an intricate social structure. There is also strong communication with parents and many opportunities to connect with other families. I can't say enough how much I love Garden Path School and what a blessing it has been for our family!
We have been at Garden Path School for over 2 years now and couldn’t be more pleased. As a former daycare/preschool teacher, I was incredibly picky when looking at preschools for my then almost 3 year old son. I wanted him in an environment where learning was truly encouraged and where he would get a great educational foundation, not just thrown in a room with tons of other kids to play all day with little interaction. Garden Path was the perfect fit and exceeded my expectations & more. As my son goes to kindergarten this fall, he will GREATLY miss his wonderful teachers and all of his friends he has made at Garden Path, but I feel confident knowing he is more than ready for kindergarten thanks to Angela and this wonderful learning environment.
