Our child's preschool experience at SLCC was truly magical. As a Reggio-inspired school, SLCC nurtures a genuine curiosity for learning, emphasizes kindness, and thoughtfully guides and supports each individual child. From the beginning, our daughter felt a sense of comfort at SLCC that allowed her to thrive- as if it were a second home. We watched her blossom into a thoughtful, kind and compassionate child during her years at SLCC.

We really liked the mixed-age setup, which allowed her to learn from the older kids while also giving her the opportunity to be a big sister to the younger ones. We also appreciated the inclusivity at SLCC through programs like culture shares, where families are able to share their family backgrounds and values. The teachers are exceptional and deeply care about their students, getting to know and connect with each child intimately. Our daughter felt so safe with them and still talks about them often! The teacher reflections and assessments were pages long and would often bring us to tears because they were so beautifully written.

Because the school is small and intimate, our daughter formed some deep, early friendships that will probably be lifelong. SLCC also fosters a wonderful community of parents, and we didn't expect to form such meaningful friendships with other families during preschool. We will really miss being part of this school and we're so grateful to have found SLCC.
