Fantastic Pre-Kindergarten program! Especially when you consider other full time options, St. Basil's provides much more. Miss Joan is wonderful & really does everything she can for her students. My child learned more in Pre-K than Kindergarten.
Endorse St. Basil The Great School. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
- Academic or athletic awards
