What Parents Say

The kindergarten program has far surpassed our expectations. The kids are learning all the reading, writing, and math skills needed to excel in first grade, in an environment that fosters creative thinking and a love of learning.

The teachers and staff are extremely kind and well-versed in their field. I love that the curriculum is play based, but also ensures kindergarten preparedness. TRS has a beautiful campus and excellent resources to meet any child's needs.

TRSECC has been a blessing for our family and 3 children. Knowing their first school experience was one where they felt loved, were safe, and had fun while developing the building blocks for learning is such a gift. We love how the school teaches through play, emphasizes the same core values our family holds, and that our kids are well prepared for primary school.
