About Us

History

Treasures To Grow On began in 1999 in a DeWitt church in response to a tremendous demand for preschool in the area, starting with 20 students.  By the second year we were filled to capacity.   In order to expand, the preschool moved to a commericial building in 2003.   Treasures currently can accommodate 30 preschool students in 3 different classes.
