Skyrise School of Summerfields

“ I wanted to thank you all so much for being apart of our family's life. The center at Basswood has been like our extended family since my son has been three months old. The faculty has always shown a sincere, caring, and active involvement in my son's learning development and has provided him with programs to help engage his own learning successes. He has been involved in the music program, phonics program, and math program. My son began the music program at the age of three and now shows a great interest in and appreciation for music. The music program not only taught him that music is a fun way to learn and enjoy time with others, but also gave him the skills for recalling and recognition as well as hand and eye coordination. In addition to the music program, my son started the phonics program. He knew his alphabet when he started the program, because of the alphabet song, but the phonics program gave him the skills to begin identifying letters and words that started with those letters. He is currently in the 4-year-old classroom and is continuing the phonics program. This program grows with each individual and has the one-on-one involvement that a new learner needs. Just last week, he began to read on his own! We were so elated to see his hard work with phonics has paid off. He was truly excited. Though he knows it can be hard, he enjoys reading and you can see when he sounds out the word and is successful that it was all worth it.  Beginning this year in the 4-year-old classroom, he started the Kelsey math program and absolutely loves it. Instantaneously, he began coming home and you could see that he was picking up the things he learned in the math program, from the basic counting skills to more of the complex skills, such as identifying patterns, sequences, and grouping, just to name a few. He has not only benefited from the programs but has had fun in the process. Accolades go out to the faculty that work with the students in these special programs at this center. They truly have given him the skills to be successful as he continues his academic journey through education. Lastly, he truly enjoys the staff at Basswood. The faculty supports him in all his strides to become a young learner and encourages him on a daily basis in a loving, structured environment. Our family is truly grateful and appreciative for the care, curriculum, and consistency that the center at Basswood has provided.

“ My daughter absolutely loves being at Summerfields center. The teachers always go above and beyond to make sure my daughter is being taught amazing curriculum and feeling safe… and they ALL ALWAYS go above and beyond to make sure my daughter feel loved while she is at school. Which is SO important to me, especially while I can’t be there. I want her to feel loved and safe, which she definitely does while she is in their care at Summerfields center.
