The Laurel School
” We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Laurel School for our children. From the very first day, it was clear that Laurel is not just a school—it’s a warm, welcoming community where children are genuinely cared for and nurtured. There is an undeniable sense of comfort and coziness that fills the classrooms and hallways. It’s the kind of place where children feel safe to explore, grow, and truly be themselves. The teachers, and the staff are the heart of the school. They are exceptionally attentive, compassionate, and deeply committed to each child’s development. Because class sizes are kept small, every child receives individualized attention that is simply not possible in most public-school settings. We’ve seen firsthand how our children are not just recognized by name but understood in personality, interests, and needs. As parents, we couldn’t ask for more. There’s tremendous peace of mind in knowing that our children are not only being taught, but genuinely cared for. Laurel School truly feels like an extension of our home, and we are grateful for the warm, thoughtful care our children receive each day “
” Our daughter Maya started at Laurel over a year ago and she absolutely loves it there. The teachers are attentive and really care about your kids. The school is owned by an amazing family that goes above and beyond for the kids. Maya is in senior preschool and she is already sounding out words, writing and gaining math skills. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Thank you to Laurel for taking care of our Maya!!! ♡♡♡ “
” We’ve had a wonderful experience with The Laurel School for our child. While the school is smaller in size, it’s absolutely perfect for young learners. The environment is warm, nurturing, and thoughtfully designed to support their growth. The staff are exceptional—professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. It’s clear they are passionate about early childhood education, which has made us feel confident and reassured every step of the way. One of the highlights of the school is its excellent language program. Our child was introduced to multiple languages in a fun and engaging manner, which not only enhanced their learning experience but also sparked a genuine interest in exploring new languages. Additionally, we’ve been thoroughly impressed with the wide variety of after-school extracurricular programs offered. From sports to creative activities, the school provides numerous options that cater to diverse interests. The partnerships they’ve built with program providers ensure the extracurricular offerings are of the highest quality, and it’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into providing meaningful and enriching opportunities for students. The only area where we saw room for improvement was the outsourced lunch program, which didn’t quite match the high standards set by the rest of the school experience. This was a personal preference for us, so we chose to pack our child’s lunch instead. However, this is a minor concern in the grand scheme of all the wonderful aspects the school offers. We are truly grateful to have found such a supportive and enriching place to begin our child’s educational journey, and we would wholeheartedly recommend The Laurel School to other families. “
” My daughter started at The Laurel School in the Fall of 2024. We’ve had such an amazing experience from the minute we enrolled and are looking forward to our son joining The Laurel family. Our daughter loves going to school, everyone is so welcoming and personable. The staff are amazing and they have created an environment full of learning, fun and excitement. “
” We have had an incredible experience with The Laurel School! From the moment our daughter started in the toddler program, we knew we had made the right choice. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, engaging, and truly fosters a love for learning. Over the years, we’ve watched her grow, develop confidence, and build strong foundational skills, and now, as she finishes up Senior Preschool, we couldn’t be happier with her progress. The educators are dedicated, nurturing, and create a wonderful environment for children to thrive. We are so grateful for the impact this school has had on our daughter’s early years— we highly recommend! “
