I can’t say enough wonderful things about First Presbyterian Day School. I am so happy that we found this school for my child. It’s an impeccably clean and well maintained facility, with beautiful established oak trees that provide shade for the expansive outdoor place space they have. My child has been attending FPDS for over a year and is thriving. All the teachers and staff are genuinely caring and kind individuals who truly enjoy teaching and working with kids. They do tons of fun art and musical activities that are specifically geared to stimulate their growth and development. I feel very safe leaving my child there because he smiles and runs in when I leave him. I plan to enroll my second child there soon as well. Highly recommend!
All three of my kiddos have gone to this preschool. I cannot recommend it highly enough! The staff and teachers care so much about the kids and are obviously there for their love of children and passion for early childhood education. The focus on outdoor and sensory play was really important to our family - the playground is so beautiful and shady, they have a garden where the kids help grow plants and get to eat the veggies they grow. My kids were so prepared for kindergarten but got to learn through PLAY instead of sitting all day at a desk. The director is very intentional with the curriculum and all the activities are focused on the developmental stage of the children. Small class sizes and conscious discipline were other very important features of the program for us.
We are thankful to have found First Presbyterian Day School! It is a wonderful space for kids to explore while also providing structure, thoughtful programs, and caring teachers and staff. Our son especially enjoys the outdoor classrooms and playgrounds, and is always excited to show off the art he does there.
My children attend FPDS and we’ve had an overwhelming amazing experience. The teachers are patient, caring and take the time to get to know all the kids on an individual basis. I highly recommend this preschool.
We have had the most wonderful experience at first pres! We love how much time the kiddos spend outside. I never worry about son at school. I know without a doubt he is being loved by the most amazing teachers in the world!
