Ms. KD & I used to teach at the same school. She always went above and beyond to make sure that her lessons were fun and engaging. She wasn't your "typical teacher". She never wanted to sit down for long, let alone stay in the classroom. I remember her saying spring was one of her favorite seasons because it allowed for outdoor teaching and exploration. Ms. KD told me that she always wanted to be an entrepreneur, but loved teaching and didn't want to leave. I am so happy and proud that she was able to make her dreams come true without having to compromise. Your children are in great hands!

My entire family had gone to Happy Days. From the original location in Patchogue where my now 30-something year old cousins went, my brother and I went and we are in our late 20's. When Mrs. R retired, Mrs. G took everything over and moved the location to Medford where my cousins who are now 9, and 6 went. And my now 3-year-old cousin is attending. My baby is only 4 months old, but as long as Happy Days is still there, he and my future baby will be there too.
