I feel that TMMS is a very good school. My daughter has enjoyed her 3 yrs there. We've had a couple of conflict with teachers but their email system works great & they respond quickly.

I feel it's important for children at this age to keep active. They did offer other sports during the timeframe that soccer or tennis would have been played but my daughter wasn't interested in the other sport.
