Honestly, coming to this school was a good decision for me.

This school has been the biggest blessing to our lives. I was shopping around for a pre-k and couldn't believe the prices I was getting. Jumoke is cheap ($500 for the whole year), and they also feed my son breakfast and lunch. The teachers are really good too.
