Centerville Presbyterian Church Nursery School

What a fantastic school for children to learn at! I’ve been on the tours of many, many preschools, but none have come close to the positive teacher-​student interactions that I’ve seen at Centerville Presbyterian. Teacher Heather, Teacher Linda, Teacher Jasneet actually spend time with each of their students and really create a bond with them. The student teacher ratio is kept very low, so there is time for the teachers to interact with the kids.
While the facilities are not new, and some of the toys are old, everything is kept clean, neat, and orderly. Classwork and homework are hung on the walls, so I know what my son is up to during the morning. There’s a very cozy feeling in the classrooms… I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it’s comfortable and feels just rights for the kids.
The program itself is very child-​led/​play based. This does not mean that your kids are just being dumped off to «just play». They are encouraged (but not forced) to participate in various projects, to play together, they sing and do circle time, and they just really have fun learning.
All in all, my son loves it here. My nephew recently started going to Centerville Presbyterian, in conjunction with Challenger, and my sister in law mentioned a huge boost in confidence in him since he started going to Centerville. His vocabulary is improving in leaps and bounds and he’s actually really looking forward to going to school now. My daughter is almost old enough to go here — it’s obvious she can’t wait!
