Elim Preschool

"Two of our children went to Elim (partially during COVID), and it was a great experience. Staff was great at helping prepare them both for Kindergarten, and have been successful since. Even though they both aged out, they both miss the school, and consider it part of our family."

"Strange how the black families never last too long at Elim. I pulled my kid shortly after one of the teachers called my child "crazy" and when I asked him why he was behaving the way he was he said " he only gets attention when he's being bad" at 4 yrs old. He's been in play therapy at washburn to undo those attention seeking behaviors."

"This is a play-based preschool. My son was at a great Montessori but he just didn’t dig it, so we tried something else. He’s thriving. He is entering kindergarten next year and he is great with and reading small words. He has plenty of focus and kind manners. He also learned how to play “toilet tag” and “ships across the ocean” in school. Let’s be real, a 5 year old playing those awesome playground games already?! This is a pretty amazing school. Don’t worry about religious vs non religious. It’s no big deal at this school. All inclusive and not weird. Also teachers are really qualified and principle is very personable and a great communicator."
