The love I have for the Family Development Center Preschool knows no bounds. The love these teachers have given to my children has been such an incredible gift, one that I will be grateful for forever. I am finishing up my time with this amazing school after seven years, and it is definitely bittersweet. My older daughters love when they have a school delay or do not have school and get to come with me to drop off and/or pick up their little sister; they enjoy coming back to this school and visiting the teachers whenever they can! My youngest LOVES school so much and is actually a little sad on weekends because she doesn't get to go to school. The teachers are so caring, the activities are educational and fun, and the FDC community is beyond compare! These families truly create one bigger family, and are there for one another in such a supportive and wonderful way! I will miss this school so much after this year, but I am so happy my daughters spent their preschool years in this positive and loving environment. The education and love they received at FDC will carry them through their entire lives, and I am so thankful!

 My daughters loved their years at FDC! The teachers are nurturing, knowledgeable, have years of experience and truly care about each and every child. They create a loving, explorative and fun environment for kids to learn, play and make friends. Krista's Pre-K  program is an incredible stepping stone for kindergarten and provides a  great base for little learners. We are so happy we found a school that provides a real sense of friendship and community for our children. FDC has been a wonderful experience and my daughters have made lasting friendships!

FDC Preschool has been a total blessing for our family. Our daughter started the Pre-K program a few months into the school year after our family moved, and she was welcomed into the FDC community with open arms. The teachers care for the children like they are their own family - it is such a warm and nurturing environment. Krista is an incredible teacher who makes learning fun; we know our daughter is going to be well equipped to begin Kindergarten. We couldn’t be any happier with the FDC Preschool and highly recommend it to any parent looking for a wonderful first school experience for their child!

 We chose FDC after looking at several different area pre schools. My husband is an educator and we love all aspects of the school. Two of my grandchildren have attended there and were well prepared academically and behaviorally to attend kindergarten. The teachers are caring, the academics are stimulating and appropriate and many varied field trips and outdoor activities are planned for the children. There is always room for parental involvement and many activities are planned for family events throughout the year. Our whole family just loves the school!  Check it out!

 Our family has been going to FDC for the last two years, we've had the joy of experiencing the 3s program and the Pre-K program. I feel so incredibly safe when my kids go to school there. I found FDC by posting on Facebook looking for preschool recommendations and I immediately noticed a common thread with the Family Development Center, so I requested a meeting and a tour of the  facility. It was incredibly inviting and felt very warm so we decided to enroll our oldest daughter. Now, she will graduate  the Pre-K program this year and our youngest will attend the 4s program  next year. I love how all of the teachers are genuine and really care for the kids. You can see and feel how much they really want to see each child feel welcome, invited, and to be themselves  every day. I'm always so impressed and happy when we ask our kids what they learned or what they did in school today. They always have a fun activity or a good story to share! Highly, highly recommend.

 Our son loves going to school. He is constantly surprising us with the things he is learning and reporting back to us.  Every class is thought out and prepared ahead of time by the teachers. Field trips, snack time, arts and crafts, “lunch bunch”, student/parent days, parent teacher conferences, etc. The staff is absolutely wonderful. The level of thought and preparation by the teachers is truly a blessing to our child.
