5 /5 Nicole Feezel: My son attended Verda Dierzen Early Learning Center for Kinder. His teacher was Mrs. OBrien, he is now in 1st grade and does not attend the school anymore.
I cant say enough good things about his teacher. Her methods work and shes 5 steps ahead of the kiddos plans! Shes able to give each child such independent time and make everyday a great learning experience.
The school overall is good, i like the pick up methods on the days that I picked my son up from school, it was easy.
I cannot comment on drop off because i have never done that, he always rode the bus.
I will say that i wish i knew about full day preschool. My son didnt attend preschool because his daycare was out of district. His daycare did NOT have any type of "preschool" and I was driving out of my way to another town to accomodate being able to work, for years!
If i had known it was an option at all, my son could have not only been able to do preschool (besides at home) but not be in a non-structured daycare. Unfortunately, it was all that was avaluable.
Overall, school was great, tons of information, kept parents involved and in the loop, tons of opportunity to volunteer, tons of events.
They contacted me ASAP when someone attempted to pick up my son, that wasnt me (dont worry, he was safe) but the measure of security made me feel safe!
I HIGHLY recommend this school AND if you get Mrs OBrien... Youre darn lucky!
