About Catherine
Catherine Hershey was known for her kind and nurturing spirit – whether it was how she cared for her beautiful gardens or her compassion for children everywhere. She also believed every child deserved a chance to thrive. Her dream to provide care and education to those who need it lives on each day at Catherine Hershey Schools for Early Learning.
Sacred Values
Catherine and her husband Milton believed in a set of values that we still hold dear to this day. They are commitment, integrity, positivity, and respect. We look for these values in our staff and nurture them in our students. We believe they are the key to children becoming their best selves.
Brand Promise
We provide family-oriented early childhood care and education that helps children reach their fullest potential in school and beyond.
