Paradise Valley Untd Methodist Pre-School

This is a great school. My son loves it and learns a lot but can still be a kid. I love that they have great shade on the playground. They really focus on the children. I love the Trunk and Treat, Christmas program, and that they celebrate most of the holidays. Their education is top notch.

I can't believe I'm the first to write a review of PVUMC preschool, since EVERYONE who knows about it raves what an amazing preschool it is. PVUMC is the longest running accredited preschool in the National Association for the Education of Young Children, only a few preschools in AZ can even claim accredation. I wanted my son's preschool experience to foster an excitement for learning, an introduction to the classroom setting, and a place that developed his growth emotionally, intellectually, cognitively & spiritually -- PVUMC delivered on all of this. His teachers really got to know him, & appreciated what made him a unique person. Going to PVUMC was something my child looked forward to everyday. Parental envolvement is high and encouraged, and every month parents receive a day to day outline of what the children are doing & what areas of development are being strengthened. As a non-Methodist, I have never found this to be a problem or an issue whatsoever. Learning is all play-based, and spiritual dev. is limited to Christian values appropriate to young children, sharing, loving each other, being kind and helping others. The price may be a bit steep, but it is the best preschool.
