Parent TestimonialsLearn Why parents Love St Stan's"We are so impressed with St Stan's! My two girls LOVE going to preschool everyday and the teachers are amazing!!! They go above and beyond for these students daily and my girls are thriving here. We were very uncertain where to send our girls before coming to St Stan's, but we can honestly say we made the best decision ever. The girls come back daily with new songs, prayers and things they learned. We are so thankful for everyone at St Stan's for taking all the additional protocols to allow for in-person learning to happen safely. I would recommend this school to anyone looking. We love it here!"Harris Family - Preschool

"St. Stan's has been such a wonderful choice for our family. I was very scared to send our girls to preschool during the Covid-19 pandemic but I am so happy we did. The school set protocols and followed them to a T, which allowed our students to stay in school. St. Stan's has been a very warm, welcoming community and I could not be more happy with our teachers, the management and the principal. I believe they are taking good care of our girls and we are happy to be in the St. Stan's family."Weinberg Family - Preschool
