About six months ago I was debated if I want my then two year old son to start preschool. I thought maybe to keep him home until the summer and wait till he turns 3. I was afraid that maybe it was too early. Then I started to see that he was in desperate need to go and communicate with other children. Being at home all day didn’t really do him any good. I was doing a lot with him in terms of learning but it still was not the same. He needed to learn how to interact with others and also what worried me that he was not really talking.
I searched a lot of schools on Staten Island that really did not appeal to me and was ready to completely give up and wait till he is old enough to enter public school pre k program. I then came across a website for CBI academy and thought to my self I will give it one more try and go check it. It was very convenient location for me in terms of commute. When I came to the school I was pleasantly surprised. I was greeted by a very friendly director. She showed me the school, explained to me what the goals are and how they run the program. The facility was extremely clean and safe. I decided to try it part time with my son. What a surprise it was for me. The minute he opened his eyes, right away he wanted to go to school. His speech improved tremendously, he became even more social, and everyday that he comes home from the school he brings something new that he has learned, a song, the alphabet,new words and expressions. I can honestly say it was a great choice of school. The staff is amazing, the atmosphere is great each child is greeted in the morning by the teacher with a look of excitement on her face and the same for saying when the child goes home. My son has this enormous smile and looks forward to come back the following day.
