What Parents Are Saying

 

Suzanne,

I wanted to reach out to you and tell you how amazing you and your teachers are. Scotland was just recently tested in her first grade class (can you believe it?!) and placed at a third-grade level for reading and almost third-grade for math. She doesn't know how to multiply yet - go figure! But thanks to your staff's knowledge and excessive patience with my girl, she is so successful in school, and she also enjoys it!

I cannot thank y'all enough. She is exceeding all of my expectations as well as her Virtual Academy teacher.  Scotland's thirst for knowledge as well as the constant question of "Why" has served her well, but without her foundation education from MBP I do not think this would be the same student.

Between Ms. Deborah and Ms. Amy's patience in the Ones, Ms. Jackie and Ms. Keli's gentle discipline and redirection in the Twos, Ms. Brianna and Ms. Minita's encouragement to think outside the box in the Three's and all the prep work Ms. Teri and Ms. Kathy did for Kindergarten in Fours, your staff really set Scotland up for success. Add in the "strong encouragement" to attend the parenting classes at Project Enlightenment and you and your team really do encompass Whole Child learning. I truly cannot thank you enough!

Suzanne,

I wanted to pass along our sincere thanks to you and your staff. Yesterday, Anne and I went to Davis' kindergarten for his first 9-week progress meeting, and we were thrilled with his progress. His teacher was extremely complimentary of his language skills, and especially his letter writing and sounds. She made it a point to ask us what preschool he attended, and she said she wanted to thank whoever worked with him on both lower and upper case letters at that level.

Please pass along our thanks to Davis' teachers Mrs. Kim, Mrs. Terrie, and Mrs. Jackie, and assistants Ms. Brianna, Mrs. Kathy, Mrs. Shelia, and Mrs. Keli. Let them know their hard work and dedication is not going unnoticed at the next level for their children.

Suzanne,

Our family has been incredibly impressed with the thoughtful, caring, nurturing environment provided by the MBP teachers and staff. The growth we have seen over the past year has been tremendous. We look forward to seeing continued development as she progresses to the upper levels of the program. From the leadership to the individual classroom leaders to the facilities, we could not ask for a better program for our family. Thank you for operating such an exemplary program!

I know next month is his last month at Millbrook. I wanted to thank you for having him at Millbrook. He's really grown, and fell in love with Ms. Mayra and his friends. Especially, Jack. I appreciate all that everyone has done to make my son feel welcome. I know I haven't been around to be seen and involved in the activities there because of my time. But, every event, he has enjoyed. Needless to say, I'm sad he's leaving his Millbrook family, but a burden is being lifted from me at the same time he's preparing to start public school at Green Elementary on Six Forks Rd.

Another great summer at MBP camp. I am so sad it was Meredith's last summer. But the last 4 summers have been so wonderful for her. And I look forward to bringing Allie and Cassie for several more summers. Please tell your staff thank you for all the love and care they showed my girls! Especially Ms. Stephanie and Ms. Anna in the twins' class. Allie and Cassie will be talking about them for many weeks to come!

 

Charlotte has been asking to go to camp this week; she misses her friends! We have her projects hanging in her playroom and she loves telling us about them every day 🙂 We are so thankful to have been able to participate in camp this summer! I think it was really important for Charlotte to have this experience before she starts school in the fall, and I am so thankful that she had such sweet, caring teachers – we love Ms. Deborah! You all did such a great job organizing and coordinating everything, which helped make it an easier transition for us! We appreciate you all!

I just wanted to thank you for providing a wonderful camp this summer. I can see every morning that it’s been a wonderful, fun, loving environment. With our new baby (born at the end of July), there were honestly times when I “felt a little guilty” dropping my son off – not wanting him to think that I’m kicking him out now that the baby is here! But every time I’ve quickly realized what a good time he has had and how much love he’s felt and fun he’s had each day. I’m incredibly thankful for the program and especially for his teachers this last session. Thank you for giving me a few hours each morning and for taking such wonderful care of my oldest baby!

Suzanne,

I just wanted to let you know that both my husband & I were extremely impressed with our sons’ teachers (Ms. Deanna, Ms. Kathy, Ms. Deborah, & Ms. Christine) for the level of detail shown in the student evaluations. It demonstrates their commitment to teaching and caring for our children and the proficiency in which they conduct their work. It was reassuring to know that the teachers have such a vested interest in our children’s development and that my boys are in great hands at Millbrook Baptist Preschool. We are so grateful for the work you all do!. In much appreciation…

Dear MBP Teachers,

We are writing to express our sincere gratitude to all of Vaidhishwar's teachers and supporting staff of MBP. Vaidhishwar has been in school for almost 8 months now. He enjoys going to school and is very happy in making new friends. It is hard to believe eight months ago, when he first came to NC he couldn't understand or speak English. The experience he got from MBP has now given him a wonderful start in this place. The love, care, and support he received from you all at MBP are the best gifts he can get which will positively influence his future life. Thank you for loving our son, for giving him hugs when he is sad or hurt, for sending us photos and notes about his day, and for giving endless smiles to him. The teachers were really helpful in molding Vaidhishwar through this transition.

Suzanne,

Thank you for leading a great summer camp at MBP. Meredith had a great time. I have enjoyed listening to her stories about day camp and seeing her art work she brings home. Summer is really flying by, you are right about that.

Thank you for caring so much and your passion for providing the best summer camp experience possible. Not many folks would send out an evaluation form, that is nice for you to offer to receive feedback. I can tell you Meredith had a great time and met some new friends she talks about often. I think it was good to get in the practice this summer of making new friends at day camp before she goes to kindergarten later this month….

Maybe starting next summer our twins Allie and Cassie will be at a day camp session at MBP.

Hi Suzanne,

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know what a great time Bailey had at camp this week. Ms. Stephanie and Anna did SUCH a great job with her. She woke this morning and asked me "I go to my summer camp today?"

It usually takes her a bit to warm up to new situations, and even though she cried for a few minutes at drop off, it sounded like she adjusted quickly and had a great time each day. What a wonderful job both Stephanie and Anna did to make her feel at ease and to make me feel that Bailey adjusted well and was able to enjoy each day! Please let them know how much we appreciate that!

We love and miss Millbrook Baptist and are so glad to have had the past few years there. I am so glad Bailey can join in on summer camps! I hope to do more next year! Thanks again!

 

I wanted to let you know that we LOVED the camp. All of your staff was so sweet and patient with my children. We can't wait to see y'all again for session 4! Thank you so much for your time, creativity, energy and love!
