As first time parents, with our child always being cared for in our home, we were extremely nervous about finding the right preschool for our three year old. From the moment we stepped into the preschool environment at St. Mel, we knew we had found the place where our daughter would be protected, loved, and cared for. Quite simply, this felt like the natural extension of our family, and the perfect next step for our daughter developmentally and socially. We feel strongly that her time at St. Mel is giving her the best foundation to be curious, confident, and a life-long learner. There can be no better choice for a family than to enroll their child at St. Mel Preschool. - Steven and Lindsey Kivetos

The St. Mel Preschool community is everything we were hoping for and more. It's a positive and constructive environment for our son to grow and learn in and offers activities and projects that leave him excited to do more. We're also thankful he can learn and grow his faith every single day. We feel right at home at St. Mel and look forward to many more years of continued education and growth in this tight-knit community. -The Weglin Family

It's called a preschool, but what St. Mel Preschool offers is so much more than a name can convey. All the wonderful teachers, including Mrs. DeLuca, have given my son such a wonderful experience this last year. Aside from all the wonderful and FUN academics, the teachers foster a caring and loving environment centered around developing relationships with others and with God. My son's huge smile at pickup time was enough to tell me that he had had another great day with his teachers and friends. And, my only regret is that he will not be there another year as he's moving on to TK. I will always treasure the relationships I made with the preschool teachers. Even more so, I will look back at this time as being special because we truly became a part of the St. Mel community and family! - Meghan & Greg Gomez

We can't say enough about St. Mel Preschool and the exceptional teachers and staff that are committed to teaching our children to learn, serve and succeed. You can tell this preschool is special from the moment you walk in the door. There are happy children, and a staff that looks out for each child's well-being. Our son has thrived at the preschool for two years and loves going to school to see his friends and teachers. The staff provide a balanced education that combines learning through play that is rooted in our Catholic Faith. The lessons are fun and engaging, but also establish the building blocks for the children's formal education. The close bond that is felt between staff and families here at St. Mel Preschool, has made us feel welcome from day one. We would highly recommend St. Mel Preschool to other families, and we certainly have. – Annie & Ross Villegas
