EC Meadows Parkway Testimonial 2

We are so grateful for the warm and caring staff that make preschool such a positive experience for our child. She is always greeted by a warm, caring, and smiling face when she arrives at school and she loves every interaction she has at school. We are amazed at what she learns in the classroom from her teachers and are so grateful for the social interactions she has with peers at school. Her teachers make the day amazing for our daughter - so much that she wants to go to school on the weekends. We cannot thank everyone at EC-Meadows enough for their dedication to making preschool such an amazing and positive experience!

We are so grateful for the wonderful teachers and staff that are so helpful and caring at EC-Meadows Parkway. My daughter loves her time at school and talks about her teachers often! We appreciate all EC-Meadows does to create a fun, safe learning environment for our child. Knowing she is in great hands when she’s away from home means everything to us. Thank you for all you do!
