I had three sons attend Saint Francis Episcopal School, and it was a fantastic experience. The drop off/pick up is so easy and quick, the staff is fantastic, and the price is well worth the education your child receives. All my boys loved this place. I highly recommend it to families in Temple. It's the best preschool in town.

Experience was extremely disappointing. Was deceived and lied to about the policies. My child was also hurt and bullied. Teacher did not SEE it happen so it did not happen according to her. I would not recommend.
