We are fortunate to have a teaching staff that is passionate about your child and their learning. Each of our teachers is supported as they stay up-to-date with the latest research and best practices in Early Childhood Education. For professional development regarding dual-language education we partner with consultant Lillian Duran, Ph.D. We also work with community organizations such as The Family Conservancy and the United Way to provide staff professional opportunities through conferences, seminars, workshops, classes, and feedback sessions. These trainings prepare them to work effectively with the children and families who access our educational services.
