My son has been going to The Growing Place for 5 years and it has been wonderful for him. They always have fun activities and events for the children. The teachers have done an excellent job preparing him for school.

The staff at TGP love their students like they are their own children. Our son started there when he was 4, and still goes for before / after school care and summer camp. We loved it so much we started our daughter there before she was 2 1/2. Not only was it awesome for the little one, but they had her potty trained in 2 weeks! The activities are stimulating and fun, and our kids enjoy going every day. We wish we had started our kids at TGP even sooner than we did!

My child has been at the Growing Place from the ages of 1 - 4 1/2. He is getting ready to enter Kindergarten in the fall and is more than ready for the challenges. The Growing Place has allowed him to interact with other children and learn the social skills necessary to prepare him for school. The staff are nurturing and helpful. My son will dearly miss his friends at the Growing Place, and so will I.

I have two children attending the Growing Place. My 2 year old is in the pre-school program and my 7 year old goes there for after school care. I love the Growing Plce! My 7 year old started when he was 10 weeks old. They have spoiled & loved him from the moment he went there. They not only care for your children but nurture their minds. He is in second grade and is doing 3rd grade work. I see my 2 year old following in the same pattern. He knows his colors and to count to 10. He says his alphabet ( as well as a 2 year old can.) I highly recommend this school.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Oops! We currently do not have any student information for this school. We rely on the state Department of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and in some cases school administrators such as registrars and principals for this data.
