The Learn With Me program was a truly special experience for both my daughter and me. It provided the perfect opportunity for her to begin socializing with children her own age in a safe, clean, and welcoming environment. The classes are teacher-led and parent-assisted, which made the transition into a classroom setting feel natural, supportive, and fun. Each weekly session was thoughtfully structured—engaging without pressure, and perfectly paced for toddlers. From music and story time to hands-on activities, everything was designed to motivate little ones while still allowing them to explore and learn at their own comfort level. My daughter looked forward to class every week, and so did I! Mrs. Bergstresser is truly exceptional! Her warmth, patience, and genuine love for children shines through in everything she does. She creates an atmosphere where children feel safe, confident, and excited to participate, and parents feel equally welcomed and supported. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Learn With Me and will always cherish the memories we made together. I couldn’t recommend this program more highly to families looking for a beautiful first learning and social experience for their little ones.

My family and I love First School. My daughter started in the Learn With Me Class and will be moving to drop-off preschool next fall and we couldn’t imagine it with anyone else. Every single staff member is nice and very helpful. My daughter has only had one teacher so far but they all know her by name and say hi to her everytime we are in. We will be with First School until she is age ready for elementary school!

Hands down the best preschool experience we could have hoped for! From the "Learn with Me" program through Preschool 4's, our son learned not only things to prep him for kindergarten this year, but also valuable social skills. The faculty and staff could not be more loving to the children or more helpful to families. The one and only small issue we had with a concern of ours was resolved quickly and with compassion. Our daughter will definitely be a student at First School as soon as she is old enough!

I can’t say enough about how incredible this school is! First, I love it because it is just a school, not a daycare/preschool combo. Second, the growth I’ve seen in my daughter this year is proof that First School is a nurturing and educational environment. The self-confidence, independence, and knowledge that she has developed impresses me everyday. The staff and facilities are everything I could ever hope for in a preschool. I am so grateful for this resource in our community.
