  The Episcopal Preschool feels like my family’s second home! We have had three graduate from the school and our fourth is currently enrolled. I cannot say enough wonderful things about EPS, from the dedicated, kind, and experienced staff, to the intimate and well appointed classrooms and facilities, EPS defines the perfect school house for the youngest of learners. As an early childhood teacher, myself, I knew what I wanted from a preschool for my children, and EPS checked all of the boxes. All of my children have loved their experiences at EPS, and my husband and I have been so impressed with how well each one of them has been prepared for kindergarten.

  Both of my children attended this preschool from the twos through pre-k programs, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about it! Every day they were genuinely excited to go to school — a true testament to how nurturing, fun, and supportive the environment is. The teachers and staff are incredible. They create a space where children feel safe, loved, and encouraged to explore. The program perfectly balances play-based learning with early academics, helping kids develop not only reading and math readiness but also important social and emotional skills. By the time my kids moved on to kindergarten, they were more than prepared — confident, curious, and eager to learn. This school truly lays the foundation for a lifelong love of learning. We are so grateful for our years here and couldn’t recommend it more highly!

  We couldn’t be more grateful for our experience at Episcopal Preschool. Our daughter attended for her 2s, 3s, and Pre-K years, and she truly loved every minute. The classrooms were always bright, cheerful, and inviting—an environment that sparked curiosity and joy. Every teacher we encountered was exceptional. They not only provided a nurturing and engaging learning experience but also genuinely cared for Gracy. She thrived under their guidance, running into school each morning with excitement and confidence—never once looking back! The school’s enrichment programs like Lunch Bunch and the after-school offerings in science, art, music, and cooking were a huge bonus. These extras helped Gracy explore new interests, build social skills, and gradually adjust to a longer school day. Thanks to this thoughtful structure, she has transitioned seamlessly into full-day kindergarten this year, well-prepared both academically and socially. We wholeheartedly recommend Episcopal Preschool to any family looking for a warm, enriching, and joyful early childhood experience.

  Episcopal Preschool in Lake Forest (EPS) has been an absolute gift to our family. From the moment we walked through the doors, we could feel the love and dedication that radiates from every teacher and staff member. The program is thoughtfully designed to nurture not only academic growth, but also emotional and social development — and the difference we’ve seen in our children has been incredible. The teachers are truly exceptional. They know each child so well and meet them exactly where they are, guiding them with patience, creativity, and genuine care. It’s clear that they don’t just teach — they invest in these little ones and celebrate every milestone right alongside the families. My kids look forward to school every single day and comes home full of stories, songs, and new discoveries. We’ve watched them grow in confidence, curiosity, and kindness — all because of the loving environment EPS provides. What makes this preschool stand out most is its true sense of family. You feel supported, included, and connected — not just as parents, but as part of a community that’s working together to raise joyful, compassionate children. We could not be more grateful for EPS. It is everything you could hope for in an early childhood experience and more. Highly, highly recommended!

  Our family absolutely loves EPS! My oldest is a recent graduate, my middle is a current student, and my youngest is DEFINITELY attending when old enough. Every day my kids have been so excited to go to school. EPS gave my oldest such a strong foundation and love of learning that he was more than ready for kindergarten. We are so grateful to be a part of this amazing communicty!
