"We are so thankful we chose Live Oak for our two daughters’ preschool years. Throughout their time here, we’ve watched them become more confident, independent, and imaginative kids. The staff at Live Oak is extremely qualified as well as loving, silly and they embrace the unique qualities in each of our daughters. Through a play and inquiry-based philosophy, Live Oak has without a doubt better prepared our children socially, emotionally, and educationally for their next step to elementary school. Additionally, the community of students and parents have created long-lasting friends for our family. Live Oak will always have a special place in our lives!"
-Lena Spence (August 2022) “Live Oak is truly a wonderful preschool. Academic instruction comes through play – motor activities, hands-on science, art projects, singing, and plenty of social interaction. The teachers are engaging, sweet and extremely supportive of each child’s individual development. The school is well-organized with clear leadership from a long-term Director, participation from a very enthusiastic Board of Directors and many parent volunteers. All of these elements give Live Oak a true community feeling and secure place for a child to begin his/her education away from home.” - Vinita Laroia (July 2013) “We absolutely love Live Oak Preschool. The teachers are great and really care about each child. The ratio of teachers to students allows the teachers to get to know each child individually including their strengths and weaknesses. They identify areas that need improvement early on and work on them throughout the year. The best thing about Live Oak (other than the quality of the teachers) is that they allow the kids to be kids. The environment is such that the kids can play and learn at the same time. The kids learn through doing and interacting instead of with pencil to paper. We feel 100% confident that Live Oak has prepared our child for kindergarten.” —Submitted by a parent (May 2013) “As a fellow educator, I knew exactly what I was looking for in a preschool for my children. After visiting Live Oak, I knew I had found the right place for many reasons. Live Oak has provided both of my children with a wonderful foundation. The staff and the classroom environment help children develop a positive self image and fosters confidence and fun while learning. The preschool continues to provide children with opportunities to embrace a life long love of learning.” -Kristen Ott (January 2012) “It has been remarkable to witness the transformation that has occurred since my son began last fall. Having him in an afternoon program has allowed me to spend our mornings together as it is such precious time that will soon disappear with the start of kindergarten! Live Oak is truly an amazing and magical environment that encourages our children to learn through their own curiosity and observations of the world. Thank you to the wonderful staff for giving my son the opportunity to flourish.” -Lindsay Woolman (December 2011) |
