Parker Chase is a magical place - where every child receives a daily dose of hugs, kisses and love…read morealong with an amazing learning environment. Teachers who have been there forever because they truly enjoy what they are doing. At the helm, guiding it for the last twenty year is Ms. Julie, a most incredible educator, leader and loving person.
Every day for the last 4 years, we drive 25 minutes each way twice a day, so that our children can have the best possible environment at Parker Chase. There are so many beautiful memories, so many wonderful things to share that could not possibly fit into a few words.
At the end of the day, it is all about the educators and the core values that they represent. The educators at Parker chase focus on developing a child socially, intellectually, and emotionally. The most important ingredient on how they make it happen is by making a child feel safe, loved and free to explore. They read books together, play in the dirt together, have splash day together and eat together. They teach them to respect each other, help each other, love each other and learn from each other.
At Parker Chase it is never about maximizing the profit. It is about what is best for the child. From teacher to child ratio, serving 3 nutritious meals a day, celebrating Halloween, Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and investing in the right teaching aids. They leave no stones unturned to make every day a special day for the child.
Caring out for each other is something that is part of the DNA at Parker Chase. I remember one time our child was going through a personal medical situation. Her entire class went out of their way to create a personal bear with a beautiful recorded message to make her feel better. It is the small things that make the big difference. It is like being with FAMILY!
A big part of the Parker Chase culture in the parent involvement. It is something that has been passed from one generation to another. It is impossible to describe it in words but all parents know each other, they all look out for each other's kids, and stay in touch ever after kids have graduated. Every parent participates in their child's special days, special projects, special events, birthday parties and celebrations.
Every child deserves love, care, hugs, learning, exploring, playing, catching bugs, dancing, singing, painting, splashing, eating popsicles, donuts and most of all teachers who care. Parker Chase is all this and more. It is a blessing that our children got to be a part of it.
