My grandson has been attending this nursery school for a year. He loves to go each day and I can see why. The teachers are very positive and supportive. Ms.Gay, the director, always has a positive anecdote at noon when his mom or I pick him up. There are special visitors who come in to give a lesson. For instance, someone from the Audobon came to tell the children about foxes .
The school even includes special lessons such as Karate, music and swimming lessons.
There are learning centerrs which are switched out periodically so they always seem vibrant. I am not usually a fan of pushing academics in the early years but the children are given the opportunity to write letters, sight read and do simple counting excercises, all in a developmentally appropriate way.
The teacher to child ratio is unusually small. Often there are four teachers and no more than fifteen children.
This school was chosen after a bad experience at another nursery school in town called Ledgemere. I could see the change in my little grandson immediately after starting at Cape Care. read more
