Parent Testimonial
My son has attended the school since October of 2006. Before enrolling him in the school I toured several others and none of them were as clean, warm and welcoming as this one. The class structure and curriculums are ideal and yet still fun for my child. They also really now how to keep the parents very much involved; there isn't a season that goes by without planned activities and/ or field trips. As a single parent without family in the area, I can honestly say the school makes my life a lot easier because I know that my son is well cared for, happy and safe while I am at work. The Pocket Phoenix staff is competent and kind, the facility clean, the meals are healthy and there is a balance of learning and fun. As a parent I couldn't ask for any more!

D'Nealian Handwriting
Research has shown that the cursive handwriting style has proven to be very effective with students as they begin to learn handwriting. D’Nealian Handwriting Style develops the rhythm necessary for the flow of cursive writing.
Over 85% of D’Nealian lower case letters are the same as their cursive version. It utilizes the whole-brain approach to learning by giving children word associations in drill and practice work with simple chants for each letter. Children easily move into cursive writing when ready and have had great success with this component of our curriculum.
