“We all hope that school for our children will be enriching, fun, comfortable, stimulating and positive. For our child, you have been all of those. His curiosity has been satisfied and you’ve provided resources to meet and extend his interests. A child with the notion of ‘research’ at three years of age is off to a good start! Thank you.”
