“We moved our daughter here after another day care center left her treading water. In her first month at The Goddard School of Thornton she went from barely recognizing letters to proudly counting, spelling her name, and teaching us new songs. The teachers have a structured, hands-on curriculum, give us daily progress notes, and greet her with genuine warmth every morning. She’s thriving and already feeling kindergarten-ready—so recommending Goddard is an easy 10/10 for us.”

“We can’t say enough great things about TLE and the incredible staff. Ms. Julie and Ms. Nicole have played such an amazing role in our daughter’s growth and development, and we are truly grateful for the care, patience, and encouragement they show every day.
When our daughter first started, she was extremely shy and hesitant, but thanks to the supportive environment they created, she has grown so much in confidence. She now looks forward to going to school, enjoys learning, and comes home excited to tell us all about her daily activities, lessons, and experiences.
It’s clear that the entire staff genuinely cares about the children and puts so much effort into helping them learn, grow, and feel comfortable. Seeing our daughter become more social, confident, and enthusiastic about school has meant the world to us. We highly recommend this school to any family looking for a caring and positive learning environment for their child.”
“Prek graduation was one of the cutest things I’ve seen. It was a Luau themed and they had hand drawn and painted a photo back drop and made cute photo accessories to make the that much more special. And not to mention a matching cake to go with the theme.”

“My daughter started primrose back in august and everything from the tour to the intro to now has been amazing. When we were picking a school, primrose was in our top four schools.Along with three other highly ranked schools, they were the first ones we toured, and we ended up cutting short two other schools because none of the other environments came close to what primrose had.
They were so great with my daughter's adjustment from being away from me and even on the occasional rough drop off now. She has flourished so much socially and academically It's amazing. The teachers are incredibly patient and kind and ms Dolores cooks some amazing meals even my picky eater will eat with no issues.
My only regret is.I didn't find primrose sooner for my older kids 10 years ago.”
“We found this place after my daughter's original child care switched to a full time job. We couldn't be happier with this facility! The care that was provided put this mama's worried heart at ease knowing my child was not always just looked after properly but also the attention, devotion and tenderness these teachers show the kids is profound. My daughter started here at 3 years old and got to enjoy the Pre-K (4-5 year old) class with Ms. Annette and Ms. Anissa. Unfortunately with life events we had to move further away and therefore had to transition her out. I would recommend this facility in a heartbeat as long as Sandy and Melinda are running it!”

“Frassati has been great for my son. When you talk to kids my sons age who don’t go to Frassati, you notice a difference. I feel Frassati has been a big part of that.Its also been a tough few years for kids and schools, but I felt that the teachers at the school done a great job. Thank you Frassati.”

“My twins go here and they absolutely love their teachers. They communicate with me about every day issues and have been so great with my kiddos. I always ask them if they had a good day at school and it’s always YES. I love that they send me pictures throughout the day of what they’re doing and learning. They have the most extravagant birthday parties for the kids and are always so sweet and understanding.”

“I've had children at schools in Jeffco, 27J and Adams 12. This is the first district where I've felt that parental involvement is encouraged and promoted and that the teachers and administration are all working together as a team to be the village that helps raise our kids. I am so grateful to be here, even if we had to choice our way in. My son stopped saying he hates school every day and has fallen in love with Clay club as well as community events at School like the Code Night. Night and day difference between speaking to the principal at STEM Launch versus the other schools my children have attended. She cares.”
“All three of our children go to ACT and we love their care! Our oldest son has been attending for three years, starting as an infant, and the experience has been exceptional every step of the way.
With our first baby, the staff worked closely with us and were incredibly accommodating to our schedule. During his toddler years, their proven potty-training approach made the process smooth and stress-free. Now, as he’s grown, his teachers continue to be patient, supportive, and especially helpful in making our son feel safe and welcomed especially on the days when drop offs can be hard for him.
We also love the daily updates and photos—they give us peace of mind knowing he’s happy and thriving. Highly recommend ACT!”
