Welby Way Elementary Charter School

My daughter is in her 3rd and final year at Shepherd of the Valley preschool. She will be starting TK at her big sister’s elementary school next year. We are so sad to leave because it is such a wonderful school. My daughter spent four months at another unnamed preschool and was so unhappy, and I felt like she was neglected. The school has been incredible and she has truly thrived. At her last preschool, she didn’t really talk much. Even at home she was pretty quiet. But she’s been at the school for three years now and she is such a social butterfly. Her vocabulary is astounding to me. She’s able to write her name, write most of her numbers, one through 10, and is able to identify both capital and lowercase letters. It’s a wonderful community as well. I’m they have so many wonderful school events, the staff is so attentive and kind, it really feels like a small family. They are a Lutheran school, but that literally does not affect my child whatsoever. We are Roman Catholic and they don’t push religion on them. They do sing a few like cute religious songs and they do attend chapel once a week on Wednesdays, but I know other families of other faiths that are there and still absolutely love it. I’ll stop there because I’m not gonna keep going on and on about how wonderful the school is. Just believe me when I say it’s truly a wonderful school. They accept students as young as 18 months old. They always have events open to the public and the community so check it out. Or schedule a tour. This is literally just coming from my own heart. I was not asked to write this. They don’t even know I’m writing this, but I just really truly love the school.
