Well this August, we will be saying a heartfelt thank you to this outstanding preschool. What an amazing opportunity she (we) has had; and my husband and I have felt supported along the way with parent-teacher conferences, thorough daily electronic communication, and parent panel meetings. The faculty is clean, has true Montessori learning tools, and highly educated and certified teachers. The preschool's administration is attentive to the teachers and family's needs, creating harmonious relationships. Our daughter is exceeding in all areas of her development, reading and journaling at 5 years old. WFM's curriculum and faculty have are absolutely amazing. If you are looking for kindergarten readiness, increasing your child's self regulation, and exploration of diversity of the world, WFM is the best environment.

We are so grateful to have found this amazing school. Debi is a phenomenal and very involved leader…read moreat this school and it shows. She's truly cares. She is often the first to be greeting families each day at the door and does SO much we could never even imagine behind the scenes too. Our child often comments about Debi and her involvement in their school day - I'm amazed by this. Additionally, all the teachers and staff here are extremely well qualified, understanding (they are all parents too), warm and truly enjoy being with kids. Our child entered preK for the first time in January and within weeks (if not days) had learned so much. She went from no school experience to confident on her way to learning all the expected preK skills and more! She was writing her name, making and identifying her letters, counting and identifying her numbers, and so much more. They made school so fun with tons of meaningful and themed art projects, creative play, experiments and lots more. They had opened an extra afternoon class and we got lucky to be able to join mid year. We were also lucky enough to have a fabulous teacher, Cynthia, with decades of experience... she made our child's first learning experience one that every parent dreams. Our expectations were completely surpassed. I love that they are so flexible with the number of days you attend as well. I wasn't ready to send my child more than 2 days to start (even though she was begging to go each day and couldn't stop talking about her amazing new school!) Within less than a day, the director Debi, every teacher, and all the staff knew my child's name and welcomed her with full hearts. Without a doubt and with great enthusiasm, would highly recommend this school to everyone.

Before we even started, the director had a meeting with us to go over everything and answer any questions we had. We felt so at ease sending our child there, already knowing the attention to detail that Spanish For Fun has. The teachers in her infant room are amazing--they were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment we stepped foot in the room. They have loved on our girl just as much as we do and truly treat her like their own. We love how strong the two-way communication is, and how we are working together to do what is best for our child. Again, our experience so far at Spanish For Fun in Wake Forest has been nothing short of amazing, and we could not be happier to be part of the Spanish For Fun family!

As my son approaches his preschool graduation from the Goddard School in Wake Forest, I have had…read moresome time to reflect on his experience at this wonderful school. Prior to attending Goddard, we had a terrible experience at one of the larger, corporate daycares. At three years old, my poor little guy was sobbing on the way to this prior school and I felt terrible leaving him there. I quickly researched other options and arranged a tour with Goddard's owner, Tom. My first impressions of the school were so positive. Over the past two years Goddard has managed to surpass all of my expectations. The building is warm, cheerful, and extraordinarily clean. The rooms do not reek of disinfectant, as I have found in other preschools. There are ample toys, games and books, but the rooms are not overwhelmingly packed; plenty of room for free play for the children. The outside area has huge umbrellas to shade the children on hot days and a lot of safe, sturdy play equipment. My father was in law enforcement, so I am always looking for the loopholes in security. This is one of the biggest advantages of Goddard in Wake Forest. The school is separated from Rogers Road by a trench that would be insurmountable by a car, even if one happened to stray from the road. In addition to black wrought iron fencing, the school maintains lovely bushes and trees that make the schoolyard nearly imperceptible by passing traffic. When entering the lobby through the main door, there are windows into the two offices - one belonging to the owner and the other for the director and assistant director. Beyond the windows is the secured door to enter the school. Almost every day the owner Tom is in the lobby greeting each parent and child as they enter the school. This is the highest level of security to me. As polite parents, we know how often it seems correct to hold the door open for another parent - regardless of security concerns. Tom ensures that this does not happen during the busiest time periods by acting as gatekeeper for the school. The same level of security applies during the most important part of the day - picking up your child. My son's grandparents came by to pick him up one afternoon and they were asked to provide ID, in order for Goddard to release my son to them. Even though his grandparents may have been familiar faces, the Goddard staff does not take chances with your child. I am a high school English teacher, so my expectations for his learning goals were very high, in addition to the loving care and safety Goddard provides. The teachers provide structure and learning activities, but do not quash the children's inherent curiosity to explore. The teachers maintain a portfolio of student work and also provide daily reports on the activities for the day. This allows parents to discuss and extend the learning that happens in the classroom. My son can be quite shy, but the teachers always find ways to coax him out of his shell without pressure. He is very proud of his accomplishments and has many positive comments to share at the end of every day. I have great relationships with all of his teachers and they always share any concerns with me the day that the concern arises. I am certain that his growth in this positive educational environment will help him so much when he enters kindergarten next year. My son has had a wonderful experience at Goddard in Wake Forest. He loves his teachers and has made good friends with his little buddies in his class. I was very worried that when I went back to work I would have to feel guilty about how my son spends the majority of his days. I feel so lucky that we found this preschool, because he always looks forward to going to school. And, I have never once felt "mommy guilt" when dropping him off. This positive experience will likely have a life-long impact on my son's overall approach to school and learning.
