My two daughters attended Cathedral Nursery School and each had an absolutely wonderful first experience to learning.
I visited the school and was given a complete tour of classrooms. I was welcomed into each room to view what they did on a day to day basis. It was a pleasure to walk down the hallways that are warmly decorated with class projects. The playground was the best compared to others I had seen.
My oldest daughter had separation anxiety, but the staff handled her calmly with love and kindness. It did not take long for her to settle in and be excited to go even on the days she did not have class. She made friends and I did too!
The prices were reasonable and right in line with the other nursery schools in town. When it was time for my younger daughter to attend I had some financial difficulties. The office staff was so kind and patient with me. They even answered my questions and helped me during their lunch breaks & after school hours.
During the four years that I was a parent there I always felt confident that my girls were in warm loving hands. The teachers always made time for me when I had questions. I saved many of the projects even framing some as "masterpieces" to grace my walls at home and treasure for many years to come. I loved being welcomed in at Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, their birthdays and especially Graduation day! We as parents were free to take pictures for as long as we liked. We were able to enjoy the "circle time" my daughters were a part of each and every day with their teachers. They had fun while they were learning about colors, letters, numbers, artists, books & authors. Pajama day was a thrill for both my girls.
My daughters participated in a wonderful music program. Towards the end of each year my girls sang and danced in a spring show. I could barely take pictures with the tears of joy in my eyes.
The girls have been back to visit many times and were given big hugs by their teachers. They both say it was the best time they had in school. I know they were safe, nurtured & loved by the wonderful warm hearted staff!
Many thanks to all that work at Cathedral Nursery School!!
