My son was currently at Pre-K in Miami Beach and frantically I had to find a Kindergarten for the upcoming year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Happyland Day School in Ft. Lauderdale, (just off Las Olas Blvd),<\/strong> a Christian based Preschool through K was recommended to me by my Assistant and by an agent in my Real Estate Office. My Assistant knew of it through the Church and through the praise of one of our agents who&#8217;s daughter attended.<\/p>\n<p>I checked it out and did my research and enrolled my son in summer camp and then Kindergarten. The word on the street was only praise for this intimate learning facility. It was amazing how well respected and regarded HappyLand was amongst parents in Fort Lauderdale. The funniest thing that I heard from a Mom was who&#8217;s 2 boys had attended several years back was that, that the <strong>Mother&#8217;s loved it so much, they kept having babies, as they didn&#8217;t want to give up being part of the Happyland Family!&#8230;<\/strong>And judging by the amount of pregnant Mothers I have seen in the corridors, maybe that was \u00a0true!<\/p>\n<p>I remember my first appointment and meeting the Principal-<strong>Ms. Pam Alexander and her Assistance, Miss Carol,<\/strong> they were warm, bubbly and inviting. <strong>They reminded me of ladies from a British sit com, with warmth and humor&#8230;.I <\/strong>felt at home&#8230;.Ms. Pam has been with Happyland for 19 years, that says something in itself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Miss Corey Thiel was my son&#8217;s Kindergarten Teacher and Ms. Esterline<\/strong>her assistant. For a year, they taught, nurtured and \u00a0prepared\u00a0 my son for 1st Grade. No words can express my gratitude for their dedication and passion for education and their affection for the children. My son, loved school, he loved Happyland and his thirst for knowledge continues.<\/p>\n<p>Happyland is an excellent choice and an excellent start for your child. It is well rounded, balanced, fun, disciplined and Happy. It has an active parents club, small classes and many fun field trips, holiday festivities and chapel.<\/p>\n<p>It is a feeder school for Pine Crest, St. Marks, St. Anthony&#8217;s, Bayview Elementary and VSY.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I believe that if a child is given a good base and a good foundation, anything is possible. That those first years are the most important baseline for the future. That it is a teachers job to spark that desire, to light that fire and at Happyland that was achieved.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"HappyLand Day School\" href=\"http:\/\/www.firstpres.cc\/happyland.asp\">Happyland Day School<\/a>-954.463.6051<\/p>\n<p>401 Southeast Fifteenth Avenue, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My son just had the fortune of graduating Kindergarten from this remarkable school.
