What Makes Us Unique

Our staff works hard to develop individual relationships with each child and their family.

We pride ourselves on the direct lines of communication between teachers, parents, and the director. We have scheduled parent-teacher conferences, regular newsletters, and convenient ongoing communications through e-mail.

Cadence Academy Preschool is well known for its community involvement. We participate in many local events, including The Lions Club “Picnic in the Park,” the Annual Community OSH Garage Sale, Annual Community Easter Egg Hunts, and other community and charitable activities. We are also proud sponsors of several local Little League and Soccer Teams. We partner with the surrounding elementary schools to make sure that our Pre-K programs are tailored to meet the kindergarten entry requirements. Kindergarten teachers from our local elementary schools are always eager to receive The Phoenix Schools preschool graduates because they know that they are starting that first day of kindergarten with the right set of skills to make them successful.
