Schools in Highland Village, TX

“I spent a year and half researching and visiting schools from Flower Mound to Dallas to find the best preschool for our son to attend.

Without question DKH was the best school. That’s saying a lot as there are many excellent schools in our area.

What stood out the most to us:

1. The class sizes- smaller than other schools. There are a maximum of 12 kids (although we only had 10-11) and 2 teachers. We had our main teacher Mrs. Howell as well as the Spanish Immersion teacher Mrs. Trudeau assisting bringing the ratio down to 6:1.

2. The leadership- this is a female owned and led school. The level of organization and care they put into the curriculum, safety and social development of the kids is unparalleled. Nancy, Becky and Mrs. Howell are unwavering in their dedication towards doing what’s best for the kids. DKH has been around since 1979- 45 years of serving this community has given them an edge in understanding our community and the greater school district to which most of our kids will be entering.

3. Play based learning- Our priority was to expose our son to building a foundation for a love of learning and relationships with others. The play-based learning is inclusive, transcending language and other barriers that might affect learning outcomes making DKH an ideal place for all children.

I truly cannot say enough good things about our experience with DKH. Every time I walk through the doors I feel so thankful that we found this amazing school and that this where our son gets to begin his learning journey.

There is a Spanish program, an early reading program and extended day program. I’m particularly excited that my 4 year old will be in the reading program next year.

The community we’ve built at DKH extends beyond the classroom. We have regular play dates and get togethers with the families we’ve made friends with. They say it takes a village and we’re so proud this is ours.”

“We are so thankful for the wonderful experience our daughter had at this school. She truly enjoyed being there every day, and it was amazing to watch her grow both academically and personally throughout her time there. The teachers and staff created such a caring, supportive, and encouraging environment that helped build her confidence and love for learning. We appreciate all the patience, dedication, and kindness shown to our family, and we will always look back on this experience fondly.”

“This a great option when you need drop in care! Even if its a schedule of visits needed, this location is great! Staff is consistently good, my boys LOVE playing here (8yo & 7yo but been here over 5yrs on and off), plenty of age appropriate options for them at a reasonable price in a great location!”

“Awesome coaches. Owner very easy to talk to and supportive of staff and athletes. Great encouraging atmosphere to grow your athlete. We’ve been very happy here.”
