<< Summer Term | Winter Term >> |
They are very good teachers, they know what they are doing. [Our child] seems to be very happy in the class. When I get home from work she shows me her work that she did that day and is very proud of what she did. -- parent of a child in Mandarin Chinese Immersion program for preschoolers
The teachers provided a kind and nurturing environment at the school, and the other children were very polite and well-mannered. -- Another parent of a child
