What Parents Are Saying

“Every parent dreams of their child growing up holistically - for their curiosities to be nurtured, their inquisitive minds to be molded, their growing bodies to develop and be nourished and more importantly, for their child to learn to be kind, gentle, loving and inclusive. 

TEL is more than just a school, it is a family that your child becomes a part of and grows with. They empower their educators - which allows them to be more effective, and they provide an enriching, immersive and prepared environment that your child will be excited to attend everyday (including weekends!)

My 3 year old comes home and excitedly explains to us what molecules are over dinner, how apples grow from seeds, how she loves science and wants do experiments (in our kitchen), how to (and how not to) touch a sting ray from their field trip, how she patiently waits for her turn, who she helped in school, how to be kind to her friends, and all the things that made her laugh.

It is a joy to watch her young mind and heart grow everyday, and we feel so fortunate and thankful for the amazing foundations that TEL is instilling in her.

TEL is every parent’s early education dream come true - something you would want for your own child, and hope for every child, everywhere.”

“We were one of the first families to sign up for TEL when it opened its doors in January 2022, and it was one of the best decisions we ever made as parents thus far. As an early childhood educator and an occupational therapist, our standards for early education are quite high, and TEL exceeds them all. TEL's incredible educators and staff members not only provide the highest quality education, but also the love and care that's required for young learners. When we drop off our son in the mornings, it feels like we're leaving him with family for the day. We are so grateful to the whole TEL community for being a part of our son's early childhood journey, and we know his future is brighter because of his experience here”
