What parents say
The best pre-school in the area! Serendipity took on our challenging daughter and was able to work with her to correct both social and academic behavior, preparing her for kindergarten. The teachers were kind, patient, experienced, and highly qualified. We are ecstatic about the results of her tenure at the school and will miss it greatly.
