What Parents are Saying About Our Preschool
Since moving our son to Pasco Club Discovery we feel at ease and fully confident that he will be cared for mentally, emotionally, and physically. Most importantly, we feel and know without a shadow of a doubt that our son is genuinely cared for and treated as such.Pasco Clubhouse Preschool Parent
Our son's face brightens up when he sees Miss Kyla first thing in the morning as she greets him before walking in. He loves that he is seen and heard by Miss Alexia. Miss Esther is his staple friend, offering peace and familiarity. Last but certainly not least, Miss Tara is his constant cheerleader and affirmer.Pasco Clubhouse Preschool Parent
