The following are five thank you notes from both parents and staff.

I am so sad that this will be our last year here at Tom Thumb. Lena will be at camp. We love you all!
Thank you and Stay Well!
Dear Mrs. Brophy, Mrs. Cancrot, and Mrs. Cappello,
Thank you so much for making this preschool experience wonderful since 2013. Evan, Alyssa and Lena learned so much and have so many memories of their time here. I am so appreciative of your dedication to these children. I am so grateful for your help through these years.
The K Family

Dear Mrs. Brophy,
When we made the decision to send our daughter to your school (at just 2 1/2 years old) we were making the best possible decision, Your school has prepared Mila for the demands of full-day kindergarten calls for, but has helped to shape her into an inquisitive, social five-year-old. She is excited to learn and truly enjoys all of the excitement that Tom Thumb brings every day.
We cannot thank you enough for the gift your school has given us! We are so thankful our younger daughter is entering ThumBelina in September because we don’t have to say goodbye just yet!
We hope you have a wonderful summer.
Thank you so much!
Amanda, Marc, Milana & Elena

Mrs. Brophy,
Thanks for all you do! We are so fortunate that we have such an amazing place for our kids.
Have a Great Summer,
Jenna and soon Jake
