Hello Parents, My daughter is supposed to start three year old preschool in August. I have no clue where to start because everything is closed. Some people said I might have even missed the registration cut off. If you loved your kids preschool can you please give me the name of the school? She really needs the social interactions. Thanks!

I think it depends on where you want to go. Knowledge beginnings by good Sheppard was great. Both my kids attended, my son here when we moved here and my daughter at their location back in AZ. They both learned a tone and had fun. Never had an issue. When I moved here it was a July few years back and was able to enroll them with no issues.
