Colonial Preschool - Overland Park

Yikes! It has come to our attention that we were looking at the results from last year- not this year. Although we were voted the best in 2024 and 2025, the 2026 winner is Heritage Christian Learning Center! Congratulations to this outstanding center! (We still have the best teachers! 🥰😉

Wow! We are so honored to be named KC’s Best Preschool by KC Magazine! A huge thank you to all that voted for Colonial! We are honored and grateful! We love our littles and families!

Such a beautiful day for our MW and Four- Day Classes’ Fun Day!

We started our day praying together around the statue that reminds us how much Jesus loves us and then celebrated the day with Fun Day for our TTh and TK classes.

For our moms- beautifully written by an amazing past teacher that lost her battle with cancer last year. She’d want you to know this. 💕

Just in case you haven't heard it today ... you're a really good mom.
And I know you worry about all the stuff you're doing wrong. But can I just tell you this -- you're doing more right than you think you are. And can I just nudge you to turn all that mom-guilt into mom-reflection instead? Can you ask yourself, "How can I do it differently?" rather than berating yourself with "How can I be so awful?"
Like, what if you gave yourself a thumbs up today? Not in a high-five-I'm-slayin'-the-mom-thing tee-shirt kind of way. But a true, tender, authentic thumbs up. One that ...
sees your heart for your children,
sees your inescapable humanity,
sees the gift of grace ...
and then draws a thread through it all. Could you do that?
And then could you remind yourself of the truth of this story you're living? That you were created for your motherhood. These kids of yours were made to be raised, nourished and loved by you.
You.
The way you make macaroni and cheese? They need that. That special thing you say to them before they get out of the car for school? They need that, too. That apology you offer after you lose it? Yeah, they need that as well. Your screen-time rules, late-night ice cream runs, when-will-you-be-home texts, four-times-a-night feedings, college care packages ... All of that? They need it.
Because all of that is you.
You were made for this role. I promise you were. After all, I know you.
And you're a good mom. Jai Wallace Tracy
