Our kids may not have the words to express their joy, but their actions speak volumes. They light up seeing their teachers and friends and take pride in sharing their accomplishments. We’re grateful for a center that offers both therapy and a supportive community, which has made a tremendous difference for our family.

High Hopes has gone so far beyond what we expected from a preschool. Our daughter has blossomed, learning her ABCs and shapes, but more importantly, she's learned how to make friends and play with others. She looks forward to school and can't wait to see her friends and teachers! We are incredibly grateful for how well the teachers and staff love the kids here and make every student feel like they belong.

We've loved having our daughter at High Hopes Preschool this year! The staff truly delights in her presence, which means so much to us. It's fantastic that she receives therapy in a flexible way—whether in class or the clinic—allowing her to grow in functional ways. Her teachers are wonderful, and the daily app updates help us support her learning at home.

The communication has been great. We like how the teachers can point out children’s strengths and work on improving their weaknesses. Our child loves to be challenged with learning new things and we feel like High Hopes is doing a great job getting him ready for kindergarten.
