  We can’t say enough wonderful things about Prospect Academy! Both of our children attended the school, and after more than four years as part of the Prospect Academy family, we highly recommend it. The teachers are professional, caring, creative, and incredibly supportive. They create a warm environment where children feel happy, confident, and excited to learn. The program does an excellent job preparing children for kindergarten. Our kids learned all the skills they needed before starting school while also spending plenty of time outdoors exploring nature, playing, and even gardening. The twice-yearly concerts are always a highlight, giving the children a chance to proudly perform for their families. We are so grateful for the love, care, and education our children received.

  We are so grateful for our experience at this preschool. Our son attended from Playgroup all the way through Pre-K, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better place for him to grow. The love, care, and attention he received from the teachers and staff every single day were exceptional. We always knew he was in the best hands, and that peace of mind meant everything to us as parents. The growth we saw in him over the years—academically, socially, and emotionally—was remarkable. His teachers went above and beyond to ensure he didn't just succeed, but truly thrived. They nurtured his curiosity, built his confidence, and helped him develop a genuine love of learning. By the time he graduated, he was incredibly well prepared for kindergarten, not only academically but also with the social and emotional skills to flourish. The foundation this school helped build will stay with him for years to come, and we will always be grateful for the lasting impact they have had on our son and our family. We wholeheartedly recommend this preschool to any family looking for a caring, supportive, and exceptional early childhood education.

  Our daughter has been attending Prospect Academy of Westchester for two years, both as a preschool student and also during the summer camp and she really loves this place. For us, the most important thing is how warm and caring the teachers are. They are kind, attentive, and always very friendly. Our daughter feels comfortable there, and we can see that she is happy to go every day. I also really appreciate that the school is bilingual. They offer Russian/English and Spanish/English programs, which gives children a natural and easy way to grow with more than one language. The educational program is very strong. There is a good focus on language, early math, creativity, and independence. Over these two years, we have seen how much our daughter has grown and learned. We are very happy with Prospect Academy and sincerely recommend it to other families.

  I couldn't have asked for a better pre-school for my daughter. She graduated with a conversational level in a second language, and I have no doubt that years later this experience has helped her thrive as a top honors student. Prospect Academy is a place that nurtures creativity, community, personal and academic growth, responsibility, and a love of the arts. The added bonus of spending multiple hours outdoors each day was also a significant plus.

  My bilingual daughter had a wonderful experience with Prospect Academy! The small group sizes mean every child gets individualized attention, and the teachers are so caring and patient. They really take the time to get to know each child’s personality and needs. The playgroup activities are engaging and fun, while still encouraging social skills and learning. It’s such a warm, supportive environment — I feel completely confident leaving my child here each day. Highly recommend!
