“We just had our progress report with Emma’s teacher at St. Patricks. All went well and Mrs. O’Conner had kind compliments for Emma’s previous teachers. She asked specifically who her Pre-K teachers were and said that they prepared her so well for Kindergarten. She said Emma knows exactly what she needs to know for Kindergarten, and then some. She was very complimentary and impressed. Obviously there is something really great and really special happening in GUMP and in the Pre-K class. Mrs. O’Conner asked me to pass along her compliments.” –Sheri & John Searing

“In today’s world of always scurrying to do the right thing and still remain popular, the preschool under your direction has offered us a welcome refuge from those pressures. Here we have found a comfortable haven where support, guidance and love are never in short supply. You have treated our children as if they were your own, and under this umbrella of security, they have been allowed to flourish at their own pace and in their own direction. We know you spend extra hours working through many resources to ensure the children’s health and happiness both at school and at home. We can never thank you properly for the opportunities you and GUMP have provided each of our kids. You have brought to our children a perspective on the world that most parents could only wish for. For this and many other things that I can’t mention because I will start to cry – please know how much we appreciate how much you have always done for our family.” – Sharon & Richard Litton
