“We love the program at Wilmington Friends School! Our child was in traditional daycare before coming to Friends, and it was the best decision for him. The program offers a nurturing and enriching environment with highly qualified teachers and administrators. They create a strong foundation for early learning supported by access to special classes like music and library, as well as hands-on outdoor exploration on the campus's nature trails. We also love that he is part of a larger school community and has the opportunity to benefit from meaningful connections with students in the entire lower school.”
