what our parents have to say

"Thank you for continuing to develop the WHOLE CHILD at Mount Olive! As you know, we're a family very active in sports, but continue to encourage activities in song, theater, art etc. Your school goes above and beyond to build these experiences."


"This is our last child and our first year here at Mount Olive. I wish we had found you years earlier for our other children!"


"When you have teachers who have been here 14 years or more and they are still passionate about what they do - that says a lot about your program."


"This is our last year here as our youngest is going on to Kindergarten. Thank you for giving them all a great start on their journey in life."
