My daughter attended First School for two years, and during her last year she had Ms. Saira as her…read moreteacher. Ms. Saira was absolutely wonderful, my daughter adored her. She was warm, patient, and always took the time to update me about my daughter's day. She also created so many engaging and fun learning activities for the class. Thanks to her, I felt my daughter was very well-prepared for kindergarten! All the teachers at the PD were amazing. I highly recommend this preschool!

First School Palm Desert Attention : Heather…read more October 17, 2025 Regarding : Ms. Sylvia I am writing this letter to let you know, how wonderful it is to have Ms.Sylvia on your staff. She brings with her, nurturing, and guidance to all the children at First School. She knows just the right thing to say to a child that is having a sad day, whatever that might be. She always makes sure that the children have what they need to be secure and have a pleasant day. For myself and my son Bradley, we enjoy talking with her and giving her hugs. Sincerely, Jeanine Matzie Bradley Thaxton-Matzie

They gave my 5 yr old a bladder infection because they wouldn't let her use the bathroom often…read moreenough. My daughter told me she was routinely told to 'just hold it' when she asked to go to the bathroom. I spoke with them about this and they said they gave her time to go, yet she still developed another bladder infection. She told me the second time that she *was* asking her teachers to go and they were still telling her to hold it. My older daughter confirmed this was happening. This was really upsetting and we left shortly after this point. Another incident that happened was bullying by one of the teachers Ms. Shama. She was very hard on my daughter who was struggling to learn her numbers in Kindergarten. It got so bad that my daughter started having nightmares about learning numbers. I was concerned enough to write a note to the teacher asking kindly to please understand she was still learning. My daughter later reported to me Ms. Shama refused to let her participate in any numbers or reading activities after that because she said 'your mom said you can't do any activities', which was of course not what I said in my note or in the quick f2f chat we had. I was really disappointed that an adult would treat a 5 year old this way.

We recently moved but prior to leaving, my two year and a half year old attended this school and it…read morewas great! She had a bit of separation anxiety but the teachers there helped to make dropping off an easy transition. The teachers are great, they did educational but fun activities and speciality days. My daughter learned a lot. We particularly loved her learning Star Spangled Banner and that the teachers gave her exposure to different languages. We certainly miss this school!

This is our second year at the Learning Tree and our daughter is absolutely thriving! The staff and…read morecommunity are like a family. Well, many are actually related but they treat the ones that are not like family too! The education is fantastic! There are so many extra things that they do to make school and learning fun! I've read the posts and I'm not sure people who are speaking negatively are talking about the same school! This school is warm and welcoming to all! The after school programs are such a huge bonus too. I can compare what our daughter is learning to the other private schools here and she is on par or slightly above depending on the school. They keep the class sizes small so the kids can get some personal attention and both of her teachers offered individual tutoring for those who need it. I highly recommend The Learning Tree!
