We love TLE of Nocatee! I was nervous sending my daughter to Vpk. So many things ran through my mind. But Ms.Holly reassured me and to me my daughter will do great. Sure enough my daughter loves vpk only because Ms.Holly is her teacher. No lie when Ms. Holly is absent (which is rare) my daughter misses her so much. Not sure what I'm gonna do when she starts kindergarten and realizes Ms.Holly cant come. Ms.Holly is truly a wonderful teacher and very compassionate for the kids. She goes over and beyond expectations.All the staff I have encountered are very kind and compassionate. I can tell everyone loves there job. Thank you TLC Nocatee for all you do!

In my daughters first year at TLE Nocatee, she was in Ms Nicole and Ms Kylenes class. They were both so sweet and connected with her in such a special way- now that she’s moved on to a new class she still insists we stop and visit the class every day on the way out just to give hugs and chat. Both teachers are always so welcoming and love on her so well, they never view it as an interruption but welcome the hugs and conversations! So refreshing to see teachers who care and really invest in your kids!! Thanks Ms Nicole and Ms Kylene!!
