  • "Kyle has been with Chicago Preschool Academy since he was two years old, he is now five, and for the past three years I have watched him grow into a great student with the help of his extended family. The staff at Chicago Preschool Academy treat each child as they would their own child. They are so much more than just teachers."

    Parent

    Darius Rhyne

  • "I have two children that attended Chicago Preschool Academy. Both children really enjoyed the experience and the staff is exceptional. I can tell that the staff really love what they do."

    Darenius Robinson

  • "My son Kyle has been attending CPA for the past 4 years and I can say this is a bittersweet moment for us both (Kyle & I) although he’s venturing out into the world and moving on to the next chapter in his life it’s sad a time to be leaving the staff that is now like family. His experience here at CPA has been nothing short of amazing, awesome, and rewarding. It’s hard for a parent to leave their child in the care of strangers but ever since I met Miss Stephanie in Walmart that day 4 years ago and she said she looks forward to my son’s arrival at the school, she also promised to take good care of him and she has, she’s a very important person in his life that I think will remain that way for many years to come. Miss Lisa has been very helpful with educational information that as a new mom I just wasn’t aware of and Miss Deneen understands that life may not always go as planned, Miss Diane makes sure my son is well feed, Ms. Charles patience is Saint-like, and Lil Miss Devin transitioned as her mom’s protégé to make a great teacher/administrator for CPA she’s going to do great things for years to come. Kyle and his entire family thanks CPA for making this the best 4 years of his life so far…"
