She looks forward to preschool every week because she absolutely adores her teacher and classmates. She learned to write her name and identify letters super quick. She has worked on the most creative crafts/science projects. Ms. Manhardt plays the guitar for her students and they sing the sweetest songs together. Her love for Christ is evident in her teaching and she makes learning so fun with her kind and nurturing spirit. I don't know what we are going to do in the summer without her." ~Heather

Promising Futures was the one I fell in love with. Mackenzie and staff set a standard of excellence. Their staff is remarkable, caring, and loving. They don’t only care about the children but also their families as a whole. I would choose Promising Futures a thousand times over." – Raven B.
