Kind Words From Our Families
"We are so grateful for our experience at Lydell Preschool! It was the best decision that we made when we moved to Whitefish Bay, so much so that 4 of our children have attended with plans to send our 5th there too! Each of our children have had their different needs met through the kindness, patience and joy that their teachers bring to the classroom. They love Lydell and so do we! Mrs. G does an unparalleled job of preparing her students for their elementary years and beyond, expertly balancing an academic curriculum with plenty of “free choice” playtime in a fun, nurturing environment. We try our best to let her know but there are no words for what she means to our family!" - Katie R.
"I met my best friends at Lydell and we are still best friends! I also liked all of the Art projects!" - Charlie, Lydell Class of 2017
"In preschool, I really liked our middle school buddies and Fall Feast!" - Jack, Lydell Class of 2019
"I really liked watching the baby chicks hatch in Mrs. G’s classroom!" - Alice, Lydell Class of 2021
"I can't say enough how much I appreciate you (Mrs. K and Ms. Kim) as her first teachers. Your patience and kindness helped her overcome the fears of being at school and your knowledge opened up her interest of exploring the world. She learned a lot from her class and really loves her teachers." - Yuan H
