St. Louis Park, MN
The feeling the school and teachers provide each day is one of comfort, reassurance, and safety, which gives me so much peace of mind. I also very much appreciate the enriched curriculum and all of the fun, interactive activities throughout each day, everyday the kids are there. 😊

The teachers! We started at TGS because of one of the teachers and have stayed because of all of them. They truly care about my kids and I can see the way my kids have responded to them with affection and respect. They make it a place I can trust sending my kids all day every day and know they are cared for, treated well, and taught to be overall good and kind humans.

As much as possible, consistent, caring, creative, and professional teachers who know how to implement the supplied curriculum.

Teachers clearly care about the students. The lesson plans and activities - both in each classroom and as a school - are fun and promote learning and friendship.

The rigor with which you seriously address questions of helping little ones prepare and orient themselves towards socialization and academic interests is remarkable! I have only one other organization to compare to and the difference is night and day. The fact that there are multiple rooms or "stations" where 33+ month-olds get to rotate into and out of is particularly good. I believe strongly in changes of scenery helping to mark transitions into and out of the right mindstate to be successful in the activity. Your teachers have been uniformly kind, interested, talkative, and disciplined in the interactions you've had with me, my partner, and my kids. There are lessons I feel I am learning about how to improve my own parenting from them, which is humbling but I much prefer it this way than feeling like I'm trying (unsuccessfully) to model appropriate behavior and interactions with children *to the professionals*. I plan to remain engaged with my kids' teachers and to partner with your organization in whatever capacity I can to help everyone in your care thrive. In short, I deeply appreciate your approach and only wish more places were as dedicated as the Gardner School of St. Louis Park.

Golden Valley, MN
We love the security of the building and that it feels very safe. We love that the staff are friendly and welcoming. My child’s teachers communicate with us about her days and keep us very informed which is super helpful. We feel she is very well cared for and has already grown so much in the short time she has been there!

Gus seems to really love his teachers - manisha is just a gem and I love Nicole’s energy. He’s also made some great friends and progressed academically.

On a daily basis, we get clear communication from our school about our son, and particularly appreciate how in-tune with our son and his needs the school and his teachers are. We appreciate getting daily photos and updates about what he gets up to during the day. The teachers are all friendly and approachable, and we've been thoroughly impressed by everyone's willingness to help us with various situations (i.e. diaper rash treatment ideas, checking in with us when our son has been unwell, etc.). His teacher (Erin) is the absolute best!

Hopkins, MN
Caring, thoughtful, engaged, fun, and supportive teachers and staff! The facility is clean and clearly designed for kids. I can tell how much my kids are learning - education-wise as well as how to interact with others. I'm so grateful for TGS!

TGS Saint Louis Park is more than just an incredible Preschool it is a community and a family. There are so many special events throughout the year that bring families together to cheer on their students accomplishments. The Teachers at TGS are very nurturing and engaging and truly care about each student. If your looking for a wonderful 1st school for your little one and a place they will always remember, this is your school!

Miss Uma and Miss Emelie have been the joy of my daughter’s life since she started there a year ago. She asks for them by name and gets excited for school. I’m so grateful for them allowing her little light to shine!

It's a great environment to not only work, but for my children to attend. I am very pleased with the academic progress my children are making and it's a great environment to be apart of.
