Mrs. Martin & Mrs. Tumpa are the most dedicated & devoted teachers of Pre-K B! I visited several daycares last summer looking for the proper environment for my granddaughter. Even though we were already registered at another school, when Old Peachtree Academy called us from the waiting list, we switched just before school started. So glad we did - we appreciate the years of teaching experience and love Mrs. Martin & Mrs. Tumpa have shown Evelyn. We re amazed everyday when she tells us whether a story is fiction or non-fiction, asks about the author and illustrator; shares the new songs she has learned like The Wishy Washy Washer Woman, Baby Shark and the Gingerbread Man; shows us how primary colors are combined to make new colors; knows the different characteristics of mammals, fish, birds insects, plants and so much more. Mrs. Martin even sent lessons and her personal teaching materials with us when we had to go to a family funeral out of state. The daily journal shows the steady improvement in Evie s handwriting. From barely knowing her numbers, she can count by twos and tens now. The teachers coordinated a wonderful program at Christmas time using the Polar Express theme. The school has special programs and fun events like fall festival, the visiting Tooth Fairy from a local dentist, and the Storytime lady from Collins Hill library. I would highly recommend Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Tumpa & Old Peachtree Academy.
