        I found this school driving by one day and so I stopped. Needles to say Ms. Alice was awesome and before I left I’d already decided my child was going to attend. The staff is absolutely Amazing and I’m so distraught that we will be attending Kindergarten. Discovery Lane will be a tough act to follow!!!!
