Puentes Language Programs LLC

We’ve been taking our son here for the last 4 years and this will be our last summer before he’s off to Kindergarten. Words cannot express how appreciative we are with everyone at Puentes. It will be bittersweet when he starts kinder but we know they’ve given 110% in helping our son grow. I couldn’t be happier with our decision to start his education at Puentes.

Our family LOVES Puentes! My son has been attending for 1.5 years and my daughter just started full day pre-school in January! Currently, just from school, our daughter speaks more Spanish than English! My son is headed to Kindergarten this fall, but will still be able to go to Puentes for their afterschool program! The teachers and assistants are AMAZING. They truly care for the children and provide a positive learning environment. Puentes uses the brightwheel app, so updates throughout the day are so fun! Both of my children come out smiling from ear to ear each day and the biggest struggle is getting them to leave! Reaching out via email is the best way to get info- but we would 100% recommend Puentes if you are interested in dual language and an amazing place for your kids to learn and grow in a loving educational environment!

My children have been attending Puentes full time for almost 2 years & we absolutely love it. The staff, the classes, the interactive learning, all of it. My children are excited to go to school each day. They speak extremely highly of their teachers & the other classes teachers who take part in each of their days. I have interaction with a lot of the staff on a daily basis & they are so kind & attentive to each child, knowing exactly what went on during their day. The benefits of having my children in a Spanish preschool/kindergarten are incredible. Both of my children have been accepted into an elementary dual language program & that is wholly due to the skills they have learned over the past two years at Puentes. I feel confident in each teachers training & ability to tend to my children’s needs. I have never felt uneasy about leaving my children in their care. I feel each of my children’s teachers care for them as any parent would hope for, give detailed reports of their progress, & knows them on a personal level that other “traditional” schools aren’t able to achieve. I highly recommend this school to anyone in search of a great place for your child(ren)!

Terrific Spanish immersion preschool experience. Teachers are highly qualified professionals. Curriculum is creative and active. Schedule is flexible to accommodate your family's needs. Very grateful. We will miss the Puentes community!

We’ve had experience with 4 daycares. Our 3-year old has been at Puentes for over a year, and we intend to enroll our youngest when she meets the age requirement. I am impressed with the Spanish immersion curriculum, but equally impressed with the quality of the staff. Some noteworthy things about our experience: • Our family doesn’t speak Spanish, but we intend to learn in the hope of keeping up with our children. (Our fear of not being able to understand the language has not been an inhibiting factor as we once thought it might). • The staff is very capable; good communication amongst themselves/parents, a real desire to be accommodating, strong education backgrounds of teachers, and more flexibility than what we’ve encountered with other facilities. • Emphasis on teaching through hands-on learning with art projects, singing (good for language development), dancing, expectations for children, and structured/unstructured play. (This seems like it should be a given, but we found many places to rely more on unstructured play and screen time as methods for passing the day, and like that there’s more expectations of our child at Puentes). • Additional exposure to cultural holidays and customs outside of my own ideas and areas of competency. When I asked the owner, Trudy, why she started Puentes, she told me that she wanted to create something that she would have liked to have available when her children were in daycare. I feel fortunate to have our family be a part. Hope this is helpful.
