The Stanley School was designed around one key idea-to make every day a better day for children in our care.
The Thomas family has always been fond of the charm of Chattanooga and all that it has to offer, including world-class education-both of their children attended one of the south's leading educational institutions in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
After seeing a critical need in the southeast for high-quality child care and preschool programs, the Thomas family met with national leaders in early childhood education to design a program to best support families.
Alongside their network of advisors, who bring more than 100 years of combined experience in the early learning space, the Thomas family created The Stanley School.
They named the school after their beloved Labrador Retriever Stanley that served as a longtime, loyal companion to their family. Stanley demonstrated the foundational values of safety, loyalty, comfort, and guidance while bringing the Thomas family a sense of joy and wonder.
The Stanley School leadership and staff work tirelessly to empower the children in our care by providing an unmatched level of support, empathy, and confidence. This intentional focus on empowerment gives children the courage and capabilities they need to shine.
