“My husband and I know that we made the right choice in our child’s preschool and we are reminded of it every day.  When she was three and her baby sister hit her, our preschooler put out her hands and instead of hitting she said, “PLEASE STOP” just like she had been taught during Peace lessons at SWTS, we knew we had made the right decision.  When her teachers expect her to look them in the eye when saying goodbye and when they tell her that they love her, we know. When we see our child’s enthusiasm while talking about the Continents or Photosynthesis or the Earth, we know we made the right decision. We know when we see honesty, responsibility, respect, and compassion modeled for her every day by her teachers.  When we see the spring in her step and the smile on her face as she enters or leaves preschool, we know we made the right decision. When her teachers talk about her with pride on their faces and tears of joy in their eyes, we are certain that we made the right decision. Our once shy and timid child has grown into an outgoing and confident child that is without a doubt ready for kindergarten in every way.   We are so grateful for all of the love and nurturing that our oldest child has been given at SWTS and we will entrust them with our youngest child next year without a moments’ hesitation.”
