Cortelyou Early Childhood Center-Main

We enrolled our son in CECC's nursery program for this past September and could not be happier with the education he is receiving, and all the fun he is having! He is already a social little guy but his teachers (as well as those who are not directly teaching him) work to further develop his skills (social, knowledge). He comes home singing songs and asking about his teachers by name which makes us smile...it takes me back to when I was a child singing the same songs too! ;) It is obvious how much CECC is valued in the community and that the school itself is its own little community which I am sure explains their 40 year success Enrolling your child here is a decision you will not regret!

Both of our most prized possessions (our 2 children) has attended CECC. My oldest started during the pandemic and despite the times CECC did an excellent job. My daughter learned so much. They really advanced her in her studies. She left Pre-K starting to read, write and comfortable expressing herself. She transitioned to Public school where she has excelled and we owe it to CECC for setting the foundation for her. Our now 2 year old attends and he loves it. We can truly see his progression. The teachers are always so welcoming and many are like family to us. My family is extremely pleased and thankful for CECC for Supporting us with our children education!

My husband and I are beyond grateful for CECC. Our daughter attends the elementary and is currently a 4th grader. When she attended the main building 6 years ago it was great but this experience with our son is exceptional. The communication is outstanding, the curriculum is thorough, the comfort, love and care for the little ones is satisfying. Small school community. The school is worth every single penny. We are extremely pleased and would recommend this school to anyone seeking great child care for their littles. Thank you to the entire CECC staff

Our daughter started 3K at CECC this year, and we couldn't be more pleased. Our primary goals were to provide her with a strong academic and social-emotional foundation for kindergarten, expose her to a diverse group of children, and ensure a safe and nurturing environment. CECC has met all of these expectations! From the moment she walks in every morning, our daughter is eager to see her teachers and peers. The bond she has formed with her teachers is evident, and it warms our hearts. We've witnessed evidence of her learning and growth at home. The regular sharing of photos showcasing her various learning activities, exploration, and experiences has been a window into her daily adventures. From dance classes to community walks and creative art projects, the daily routine at CECC is filled with enriching experiences. Our daughter's enthusiasm and development, speaks volumes about the quality of education and care she receives. We wholeheartedly recommend CECC to other families!

Love this school! I actually went here and can say they taught me a lot. I was able to skip kindergarten after attending here because they felt I was too advanced. I remember going to trips to the library nearby and us performing dances and singing songs in the elementary school auditorium not too far away.
