Highly recommend St. Sylvester School! My daughter loves coming to school everyday. Ms. Mariscal was an amazing teacher during her kindergarten year and my daughter thrived in her classroom.

St. Sylvester has been wonderful for my daughter. Transitioning from daycare setting has been a breeze here. My daughter loves the rhythm of the day and enjoys all of her enrichment classes as well as learning each day. Her teacher is very communicative and I always know what is happening around the school.
