My wife and I have custody of our now 3 year old granddaughter. We did an exhaustive search for a preschool in our area (Wilton Manor, Fort Lauderdale). We narrowed our list down to 6 facilities and visited each facility and spoke to each school's director. We also stopped by "unannounced" at each school at varying times of the day including lunch time and nap times. We also checked county and state public records for violations and complaints. In the end, we chose Cypress Preschool on Dixie Highway in Fort Lauderdale. It is now over a year since our granddaughter has been attending the preschool. I can say without reservation that we are 110% satisfied with the care and learning environment provided by this school. During the entire year that we have been associated with this school, we have never observed a sick child at the school other than minor runny noses. As a matter of fact, we were once called to pick up our granddaughter due to the fact that she began to run a fever at school. The teachers are very dedicated and do their very best to keep the children engaged in learning and happy while away from home. My granddaughter looks forward to going to school each day and visiting with all the friends she had made over the past year. When she arrives, she received "hugs" from several of the staff and loves all the activities that are provided. There are many activities including dancing, singing, arts and crafts, visits from dentists, firemen, holiday parties and "pizza day" on Fridays, bounce house day, and the list goes on and on! My wife and I could not be more pleased with the care and operation of Cypress Preschool. I would have no reservation about recommending this school and their professional staff to anyone considering placing their preschool child in this school! read more
