We are pleased with the integrated design of the curriculum, even starting in kindergarten. Our son's teacher shows careful attention to his progress and comes with more than a decade of experience. The outside time really helps tie together the lessons learned. His interest in numbers and reading has exploded in the month since he started K. Just fantastic.
