Rosedale

I've been a parent at Abiqua now for three years and absolutely love everything about the school. I have three children there, and they are all thriving. The teachers not only teach my children their ABCs, but also teach them how to be good people, which is equally as important in my opinion. My eldest will be going to high school soon, and I truly feel that he is ready for that challenge. Thank you Abiqua for everything that you do!

We love Immanuel - both of my kids have grown academically and in their knowledge and love for Jesus. There are also so many fun events to create community: movie nights, chili cook-offs, science fairs, all-school plays, potlucks, singing in church.... it's wonderful!

Amazing teachers (all of them have been on board there for many years), and the kiddos learn so much during their time there through creative lessons, art, music and outdoor time. I've never seen another preschool with the art, music and other activities that this one has. They focus on a well-rounded kiddo - strengthening academic and social skills. A magical little school.

Bud to Blossom is Salem's premier Discovery School. To the untrained eye, it might appear that the children are "just playing", but there is science behind their philosophy and their organized and well thought out curriculum. They've been around a long time, and have an excellent history of teaching children far more than just the basics. Anyone who says "they're just playing" simply doesn't have a good understanding of the discovery philosophy or the DEPTH of learning that's actually going on. Children who attend Bud to Blossom are blessed to be learning from long-term staff who are 100% invested in what they do and the families they work with. The discovery philosophy nurtures both mind and spirit. Bud to Blossom is simply the best.
