The Krokos run an amazing facility. Their teaching staff is loyal and dedicated and the students come out prepared for learning. My "school ager" loves teacher workdays when he can spend the whole day at Dawning Point learning with Mr. Ken. I can't thank Dawning Point enough for the fantastic foundation they have given my children.

I feel so fortunate to have found Dawning Point Chatham. My children have a strong foundation for their education thanks to Ms. Pat and the Krokos. My oldest is thriving in kindergarten and my youngest can't wait to start. They love learning!

Ms. Pat is simply the best. My oldest was wonderfully prepared for kindergarten and transitioned well thanks to Ms. Pat and the staff at Dawning Point Chatham.

This school is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! The owners and staff are very attentive to the needs of the children. After moving to the area and doing extensive research, I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of staff. They answer all my questions and are very structured. I can honestly say that I felt that 'home" connection which was important for me and my family. My daughter has been with them for the past 6+ years. Ken and Leigh Ann do a great job teaching and incorporating that sense of community with the various projects with the children. My daughter is excited to come and be a part of it. The curriculum and staff are superb and they are very accommodating. I highly recommend them. I am so happy with this school!

GREAT SCHOOL! The owners and staff offer an excellent curriculum and help prepare your children for elementary school. My child was well prepared for Kindergarten and now she is thriving in 4th Grade! Ken and Leigh Ann are excellent at engaging the children with activities and projects which help them develop. They also teach life lessons such as respect and manners and sense of community and helping one another. What a great concept! We have been very pleased with the school and know that you will love it too!

Ken and Leighann are wonderful parents and teachers. The school has an outstanding curriculum and an amazing staff. I researched and visited numerous area schools before finally choosing this one and couldn't be happier!

BEWARE! My children attended this daycare for a short amount of time and they are very high priced for what you get. Only one of the "teachers" are licensed the others do not even have a degree in education. Most of the teachers or helpers are college students who are so overwhelm by the amount of children present in the classroom, they are just simply trying to survive not teach. They isolate children and have little to no behavior management. The worst part is the owners have no clue the majority of time. The communication between the staff is awful and the communication between parent and the staff is minimal to none. The owners have little to no idea what is going on. They are rarely are in the preschool area. In fact one leaves half way through the day. It is very unorganized to say the least. They continued to go up each year without the service going up. I wish someone had warned me that they are very unexperienced in child care and education, it put my child back at least six months and now we are stuck making it up. What an awful experience especially with a child's education. BEWARE!

Both of my children have attended Dawning Point Chatham since the age of 2. My son who is now in first grade, has done exceptionally well in all of his school work and testings. My daughter is 4 and is also doing very well with the basics that she will need going into elementary school. In addition to everything my children have learned, they have also learned the importance of respect for others, manners and always doing the right thing!
