“The entire staff has gone above and beyond my expectations. I never thought I’d feel so attached to a school!

This was the best decision we made for our child”

“Loving place and people. Safe nurturing environment creative and engaging curriculum. A relaxed and playful feel . Teachers and school make UMPS a place where kids learn and LOVE school. Director that is present with both parents and kids, cares so much and is always open to engage and create!.”

“The school provides such a welcoming vibe to all. All school functions & activities are based on the students and what is best for THEM, always.”

“Parents are included in daily activities with the white board, a google drive of pictures of both our individual children, and whole class activities. Methodist truly is a play-based preschool, but also works on essential (name writing/practicing letters) academic basics needed for kindergarten. We could not be happier with our experience at Methodist Preschool & only wish we could stay longer!”

“Great community, loving environment, wonderful learning creative opportunities for expression & exploration.”

“Highly qualified, caring, respectful staff & program.”

‘‘I cannot tell you what a blessing UMPS has been for our family. Your steady and compassionate leadership has been such a gift and every single teacher has had a profound impact on William and Jack - you all are the reason that they both ask why they can’t go to school every day, even on the weekends! This community that you have fostered -especially during this past year - your love, flexibility, dedication and care - has really touched us all and will be so missed. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!’’

“It’s obvious that the school is a very caring environment for the children and we appreciate the positive reinforcement. The curriculum is diverse and interesting. Carol is always on site and visible and makes a point to get to know all the students and parents.”

“The overall environment is a very warm and inviting space. The teachers are caring and seem to treat all the children based on their individual needs. My daughter has learned so much through play.”

“Community, great teachers, and administrator. Love the location and building.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Methodist! My kids love it and they come home telling us all the amazing things they learned! Keep up the good work!”

’’ I wanted to take the time before the school year comes to an end to say Thank You! Sofia had such a wonderful experience at Methodist!!! She has grown so much and has developed such a great love of school and learning and that is a huge credit to your preschool!!! We are so sad that Sofia's preschool years have come to an end, but know she is ready for kindergarten! We appreciate your support, leadership and love!’’

“Ken and I wanted to send our sincerest thanks for welcoming us into the United Methodist Preschool community. You helped make the transition from the city to the suburbs easier for us with your warm smile and friendly words each morning. We enjoyed getting to know your talented teachers as well as the parents of the other preschoolers. Importantly we were consistently impressed by the amount of thought that went into the lesson plans and projects and the ability of the teachers to tap into and engage the children’s natural curiosity about the world around them.”

“Today, on the way to school, Eleanor said “you know, we learned a lot in preschool, but we just didn’t know it because we were having so much fun.” What she said matched the UMPS mission of play based learning!”

" You have fostered a very loving, safe, play based environment for our children. They love it, it has helped them grow and develop beautifully. We are grateful!"

“Hands on learning, the teachers really know the students. A lot of opportunities to socialize amongst families.”

" The teachers are wonderful and provide a great curriculum. With my child being the oldest, she was still challenged in her on way while still catering to the needs of the younger students."

“We are so thankful. our son has thrived..his handwriting is excellent, and his alphabet is on point. he is so ready for kindergarten”

“ The most loving environment for growing minds!”

“Kids can be kids at UMPS!”

“Very loving, amazing teachers. Playbased learning is excellent! Teachers – 3’s room is Amazing!

Kind and warm teachers . Strong teachers, student teacher ratio and sense of community!”

“Warm, loving environment, teachers are genuinely happy to see the kids and teach them! Fun educational activities, yoga, music classes are great. As well as art projects”

“I am blown away by how much my child has progressed this year and is ready for kindergarten. The teachers ensure the children are learning but make it fun!”
