Welcome to CVCS Kindergarten! 

Here is a little glimpse inside our classroom. We offer a hands-on, multi-sensory, explorative, scientifically-based kindergarten program. Students will benefit from a small class size and individual instruction as they learn and discover new things.

"Sending my daughter to CVCS is the best decision that I have ever made for my little girl. I have watched her blossom from an angry little girl to a talkative loving, and caring child. I cannot express how grateful I am to the teachers for so much patience, to the staff for welcoming us, for the parents that I now consider family. I cannot wait to see what the next year has in store for my daughter. She was in a cocoon in the beginning of kindergarten, but by the end of the year emerged a beautiful butterfly. " 2021/22 CVCS mom
