–Ibay-Williams Family at Lincolnia CampusHow time flies! It seemed like it was just yesterday when our daughter started at the academy. I think I was even more nervous than her on that first day not knowing how she was going to take it all in, knowing up to that point we have not really had any formalized schooling. There really was no need for me to worry though because by the time I picked her up she was smiling and was actually excited about school. I would like to sincerely thank you and your staff for making the last school year an absolute blast!  Our daughter progressed so fast that she now writes, counts and reads with confidence! Thank you for creating a nurturing and safe environment where kids feel like kids at the same time given the essential building blocks to ensure that they are successful in whichever program they continue to. I also would like to specially mention Ms. Yolanda who lovingly prepares the kid’s meals; Ms. Medalia who is always helpful; Ms. Alexis and Ms. Carmenia who made summer camp super fun and cool; Ms. Sharon and Ms. Carmelita whom she found her second niche and Ms. Sebina who is so kind and of course Ms. Senait who really nurtured her, patiently worked with her and yet lovingly oriented her to school do’s and don’ts. Again THANK YOU for having such a great team of teachers who love what they do and it shows and the kids know and feel it. We will always cherish having started with Northern Virginia academy of early learning.
