  • Our son has been at First School since he was an infant and we've had a great experience. It is amazing to see how much he learns and grows here every single day. He especially loves all the fun activities and field trips. The staff is wonderful, as well!

  • We absolutely love First School. Our 3-year old daughter loves the school and the teachers. They are incredible. Great staff and space. We have recently moved to the US and going to First School has helped our daughter to get acclimated to the American culture and make new friends.

  • First school has served our family so well. We are foster parents who have had the privilege of partnering with First School to help our kiddos thrive while they are in our care. They have welcomed us with open arms, loved on our kids, been flexible, and have been willing to learn along with us. We are beyond grateful for the care that is offered through First School.

  • My three children started at First School a few months ago. Mrs. Green stayed in contact with us during the enrollment process and was so kind and helpful. Since starting, the teachers were patient with my children as they went through an adjustment stage from moving to Mahomet and starting a new daycare. I also have seen growth in my preschool age children and they often come home talking about what they learned. They also take field trips which our old daycare never did!
