I started looking for a preschool for my son when he was 2. We scheduled tours of almost all the major preschools located in Harford County, but stopped looking around after we attended an open house of Forest Hill Nursery School. We felt welcomed from the moment we began our in-class tour. I was able to see the 3-4 year old class in action and once they explained the co-op experience in detail, I knew it was the right fit for our family. Being a co-op, the school requires parent involvement in the classroom and to serve on a committee. I found the involvement to be one of the best experiences of my life. It's been such a joy to watch my child and his school friends learn and grow. I thought at first it'd be challanging to work and volunteer with the school, but I found a way to make it work and it was worth every sacrifice. My son absolutley loved his first year of pre-k with Mrs. O'Donnell, and we look forward to next year with Mrs. Emerson. The teachers are wonderful, positive, enthusiastic, and love every child like thier own. I have felt very comfortable having my son in this learning environment from the start. read more
