I will forever rave about AGSA! From the very first day I felt at ease and comfortable trusting them with my 7 and 5 year old. Both of my children have been with AGSA since they were babies. The whole staff are welcoming and you can see and feel that they care for their students which is amazing! I applaud how Marissa runs the center. She is doing an amazing job. I highly recommend them for childcare.

My son finished the Pre K program and all I have are positive experiences. He learned a lot and everyday he’d come back and surprise me by the things he was taught. I am sad he is moving on but we’ve got our next child who will be attending this fall. I’ve reached a comfort in knowing and trusting that my child is safe in this school. Good school and great teachers. Ms Lana is the best. Very polite and helpful.

My daughter and her best friend both attended for the 18-19 Pre K year. My daughter had two amazing teachers who my daughter absolutely adored! Not only do I feel that she is now better equipped in her educational preparedness, but also in her social readiness to go to Kindergarten next year. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone!
