SHERMAN, Tex -- It's hard for any parent to leave their child behind at preschool. But Covenant Presbyterian Preschool in Sherman is helping to ease parents' pain.

Many teachers have a morning ritual that acquaints the child with the routine for the day. But on the first day of pre-school here, (which was Tuesday) the school also has a meet and greet room, just in case any parents feel like talking things out a bit.

Some parents brag on their child's teachers. Others share the memories of taking their older children to pre-school for the very first time. But whatever it is they need to talk about, the opportunity is always available.

And it goes a long way, especially when parents know this is the very first step to many more steps in their child's life.
