Greenwich Award Program Honors the Achievement

GREENWICH June 1, 2017 -- South Central Preschool has been selected for the 2017 Best of Greenwich Award in the Preschool category by the Greenwich Award Program.

Each year, the Greenwich Award Program identifies companies that we believe have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category. These are local companies that enhance the positive image of small business through service to their customers and our community. These exceptional companies help make the Greenwich area a great place to live, work and play.

Various sources of information were gathered and analyzed to choose the winners in each category. The 2017 Greenwich Award Program focuses on quality, not quantity. Winners are determined based on the information gathered both internally by the Greenwich Award Program and data provided by third parties.
