What Our Parents are Saying about SAND:

As parents it's so crucial to feel confidence and trust when you drop off your child somewhere and we feel that 110% at SAND!" 

 

 C.L.

 

"SAND means a lot to me.  You were an amazing support system at a time when I was still trying to gain my footing as a new mom.”  

M.N

“… thank you for making our first preschool experience such a positive one!!”

J. P.

 

"You guys have an amazing program! My son attended for the 1st time last week and each day said 'I wanna go back to school, mommy!'. ….  I'm singing praises for SAND school all over the community!"

“Thanks so much for welcoming my son to SAND!  He had such a great first introduction to school.  He was always excited to go, and I hope that carries over to preschool and the rest of his school years.”

S. D.

 

“He really loves his class, and our family is very happy with (our son’s) love for school. He wasn't like that last year at the school he was attending.  It might be because he is more ready to go to school, but I think it has more to do with the environment you have created at SAND.”

C. D.

 

“I couldn’t be more grateful for (our daughter’s) experience at SAND.  It’s been such a blessing for our family.  She has been so loved and it’s the best gift.”
