Our son attended Laura Vicuna for Pre-K 3 & 4 and was very well prepared for Kindergarten. The teachers and staff were loving and cared for every student. We watched his other classmates thrive. We also noticed the attentiveness to every student at all learning levels, especially as a 3-year-old. -John C.

I can't say enough about the Laura Vicuna Pre-K program. Our son has been there for 2 years and has loved every moment. He adores his teachers and friends at school. He learns something new every day and comes home with tons of fun stories. Albeit in the middle of a global pandemic, school staff manages to keep things fun and exciting for the kids. I'm really proud of how staff has performed in this environment! -M.D.

Mrs. Simons and the teachers at Laura Vicuña are amazing both in and out of the classroom. Our daughter attended Pre-K and would talk constantly about all the amazing and fun activities either at school or in the NB community. We cannot wait for our second to join the Laura Vicuña family!! We would recommend this pre-k program to any family. -Andrea S.

Laura Vicuña's staff has to be one of the best in the city. The entire staff is compassionate and caring towards the children, as well as the parents. ... (we need some love too during such a big adjustment of sending our little ones to school for the first time). The children have a ton of fun while at the same time being prepared to enter kindergarten- and they are more than ready at the end of Pre K 4. If you are looking for a Pre K - I highly recommend Laura Vicuña. -Colleen D.

We have had two children come through this extraordinary program, and both kids came out of it ready to tackle Kindergarten. A great mixture of learning to take instruction, follow rules, have fun and all done in a very loving environment. Barbara Simons and her entire staff are jewels of the City in my opinion. -Sean M.

What a great school. We couldn't be happier that we were able to get our son into this Pre-K school early in the year. Surprised at how easy the transition for him was and how much he loved going to school each day. I'll also mention how wonderful the whole community at this school has been. Mrs. Simons is amazing and helped us identify a hearing issue that would have gone unnoticed otherwise. Very excited for him to continue at Saints Peter and Paul Kindergarten next year. Side note...we did the After School Care where we picked him up at 5:30 which was very convenient. -Tom L.
