We asked parents to sum up their thoughts about Turtle Creek. There was not one negative comment. (We will make these surveys available to any new prospective parent for them to peruse.) Here are some of the highlighted comments taken directly from our 2009 survey:

“I feel the teachers at Turtle Creek Learning Academy are the most valuable assets to this school. I have sent both my children to TCLA. I believe it was the best environment to advance my sons’ growth. The teachers and curriculum made learning fun and the teacher/staff ratio allowed for individual attentions. Both my boys have excelled in reading and math and I owe that to Turtle Creek. Thank you."

"It’s an excellent school for building the fundamentals that apply in today’s educational system. It’s a home away from home. We can’t say enough how grateful we are to you for the service and kindness you have given our son and family. The staff is always so pleasant and kind and caring. Marilyn Beutel does such a great job running the school. We loved all our son’s teachers at Turtle Creek."

                                                            Sharon Kenny

"I think Turtle Creek has the best mix of a nurturing environment, academics and quality of teacher in the area. Turtle Creek is a very warm and nurturing environment. All the teachers are wonderful and my children have received a great education! My second grader is learning things this year in public school that she was taught in kindergarten at Turtle Creek."
                                                            Susan Fitlin

"Turtle Creek offers a progressive and fun loving educational experience. Both of my children have thrived and are well equipped for the next level or grade. Thank you for caring so much."

"Since the day I walked in the door at Turtle Creek, it has become a part of my family. Some of my children’s fondest memories have happened here at Turtle Creek. I don’t know what I’d do without Turtle Creek."
                                                            Tricia Kritzberg

"Turtle Creek is a warm, friendly, nurturing school that truly cares for our children and completely prepares them to embark on their elementary school journey."
                                                            Nancy Morin

"Turtle Creek offers such a well- balanced curriculum that the children become completely well rounded. They are exposed and taught more than other preschools. Keep up the amazing work! Thank you for all you do for the children."
                                                            Kelly Siver

"In the past 2 years, my daughter has come very far academically, but she has also become a much more confident child. I believe that this can be attributed to small class sizes and the warm environment that she has been in at Turtle Creek."
                                                            Teri Simon

"Turtle Creek has been such a warm and caring environment for my daughter. If it weren’t for your school and wonderful teachers for the 3’s and 4’s, I’m not sure my daughter would even be in Pre-K. I cannot thank you all enough for what she has learned not only in academics, but socially as well. Because of Turtle Creek, my daughter is a very bright social butterfly who will fly off to kindergarten."
                                                            Amy Barrett

"My son has had an amazing year! He is excited about going to school because he knows he will have fun learning about new things. He loves to come home and share all of his experiences with us! Thank you! Plus, he’s made lots of new friends!"
